It’s a whisper,
soft or Loud
I always hear,
Constant companion
Demon dancing upon on my shoulder,
Trying
To
Cut
My
Thread.
I drown him out
Intoxicants flushing it
Off my shores,
‘Til she comes creeping back,
One hand upon my
Neck,
Not today,
No lies for me today,
A daily mantra
That keeps it
At bay
