Please let me in,

My demons begged.

This will be good for you,

My demons bargained.

 

I will not fall again,

I will not let you in.

You will not diminish me,

And I will not lose myself.

 

A very tempting offer,

I must refuse.

Only good for the moment,

Then I'm gone the next.

 

So my demons,

May you be gone.

I will not be forced to run,

And find myself all over again.

 

I'll never go back to that,

My demons,

I'm done.
