Array ( [sid] => 63939 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Dancing With My Demons [time] => 2004-09-16 05:50:45 [hometext] => I am no longer afraid.... [bodytext] => I am dancing with my demons,
Waltzing with these cruel heathens,
No longer in fear now I have power,
I’ll cast them into their darkest hour.

The pace quickens as does my heartbeat,
They try so hard to step on my feet,
But I am always one step ahead,
For once & for all I want my demons dead.

As we twirl so fast then turn,
I feel happiness no longer the burn,
I can look them straight in the eye,
Without feeling scared or needing to cry.

I have become an expert in this field,
I have a powerful weapon which I wield,
A true heart & a pure soul,
They watch in horror as my love unfolds.

You see love is what made me strong,
I possessed this power all along,
Just didn’t have anyone to set me free,
But now I just where I’d longed to be.

Dancing with demons from my past,
Out into oblivion is where I will cast,
For too long a year have I have been hiding,
Now on the wings of love I am riding.

I am dancing with my demons,
Waltzing with these cruel heathens,
No longer in fear now I have power,
I’ll cast them into their darkest hour.

The pace quickens as does my heartbeat,
They try so hard to step on my feet,
But I am always one step ahead,
For once & for all I want my demons dead.

As we twirl so fast then turn,
I feel happiness no longer the burn,
I can look them straight in the eye,
Without feeling scared or needing to cry.

I have become an expert in this field,
I have a powerful weapon which I wield,
A true heart & a pure soul,
They watch in horror as my love unfolds.

You see love is what made me strong,
I possessed this power all along,
Just didn’t have anyone to set me free,
But now I just where I’d longed to be.

Dancing with demons from my past,
Out into oblivion is where I will cast,
For too long a year have I have been hiding,
Now on the wings of love I am riding.

I'm glad you're dancing with your deamons now. It's a nice feeling, actually.

Wish I were dancing with mine... but they're dancing with me right now. Again.

Beautiful poem. Great imagery and tone. I love your work, pixie.

Lots of love and peace be with you,

Chelsea
