They are the shadows,
that skulk in the corners of our minds.
The are our many doubts and depressions,
we try to leave behind.
They are the fears and anxieties,
that shackle and bind.
They are the solutions and answers,
we cannot seem to find.
They are the hatred and the gnashing,
the tongue-biting and back-lashing,
disgusting and soul crashing-
those horrible and ugly truths!
that make our teeth grind.
These are the demons we face,
and they plague all humankind.

Great poem! I love the dark theme that rings true keep on writing!

Interesting poem, dark and truthful! I love all things horror and dark fantasy, but this one is sadly, reality, for some folks.

Lovely piece. I likeee.
