The fight

I got into a fight 

With my demons

    One night.

They came for me

I was just staring at the ceiling fan

When I heard them.


Loud and clear 

They dared me to fight them

I shut my eyes tight,

And tried to cry myself to sleep

But the tears fed them.


So, I wept them off

And accepted the challenge

Vigorous and angry

They came for me


But they didn't know

I was the fire

 they were the flame of.


All I had to do

To take all of 'em down

Was to use them

And their flame

To burn down what they fed on

And to light up my dark side

Where they resided with pride


They're all gone now,

They don't hold me down anymore

I am a fire without the

 demons now,

A fire without a flame

That burns its enemy down

Without any warning.
