Inner Demon Betrayal

14 4 1
                                    

I open my mouth,

take the words in 

my head

and spit them

                            out in a rush

as if by the devil himself.

Those words aren't my own!

I chase them down, but they reach your ears

too soon.

Demons grin in your eyes

as your face shows hurt

                                        shock

                                        betrayal

While the devil pushes more words towards me.

I try to run and hide, but

they find me anyways.

Our devils inside kiss and

slip away, neither with a heart.

Only we have hearts capable of 

this.
