the way I feel

The Devil woke up today
The Devil woke up today

And I tried to
Scare him away

The devil woke up today
And gave me a slap
On the back

I didn’t do the
Right thing I
Let him in
To my head

The devil woke up to today
And I pushed him away

He came back and
I did the same

Then he took my head
And lead me his way

No more
That’s enough
I can’t take it anymore

I freed my hand
And ran away

I don’t want to be
Like that and
I hate the way is feels

I’m not the type
Of person

To do that to people
And still be good

I want to forget
The pain I felt

But I can’t
Get it out of my mind

Everything is falling apart

Poetry can be a powerful way to communicate. As you have shown, sometimes fewer words can be more powerful than many words.

Your last poem prompted some very positive comments. That must make you feel proud.

Keep writing. I'll keep reading.
