Demons In Our Mind Poem by David Harris

Demons In Our Mind

Rating: 5.0


When you are stressed,
the demons awaken in your mind.
Positive becomes negative,
confusion reins supreme.
We know not what we are doing.
Our lives become muddled
and turmoil sets in.
Nothing is real anymore
all our thoughts are imaginary.
We see loss
when there is no loss there.
We fear everything we hear.
Thoughts become illogical,
and we see everything as some kind of plot
and the demons in our mind
are now working overtime.

Dreaming of something else pleasant to oneself is a way to chase the demon...or choose to do that interests self and others is another way...first of all to think about doing something else is a hard way I agree...meaningful

I believe the demons are especially prevalent at about 3.00am. For some reason dark and wakefulness combine to make even the most optimistic spirit lose his/her way. But you're right. Our perception of how things are is much more significant than the reality. Wise words penned with accessibility. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
