Array ( [sid] => 75299 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Beating My Demons [time] => 2004-12-11 10:49:49 [hometext] => this won't be easy I know... [bodytext] => I know I am not quite there yet,
On this fight I will not place a bet,
As I am strong now but will it last?
Over me long has a shadow been cast.

I will not give in I have come too far,
I will fight on while bearing my scars,
Even at times when I am feeling depressed,
Battle on I will when I am feeling stressed.

I know this won’t be easy it will be a battle,
But I am confident I’ll make my demons rattle,
The gloves are off I have had enough,
It is about time this Pixie got tough.

A long while ago Once upon a time,
I had nothing & nothing was mine,
My demons had it all every little thing,
I’d felt like they had clipped my wings.

Now I feel like I have a chance,
To step on their toes & make them dance,
Beating my demons won’t be an easy task,
I will spit in their faces as I rip off their mask.

Beating My Demons

Good write-
Sometimes it is hard to keep a lid on my demons-
They take my hand and lift the devils blood to my lips-
Hope you have more luck than I have had...
