The devil steals
Every private thought
Intimate moment
Sliver of joy
Sense of peace
He feeds on you
Your bones.
They look like knives
Slicing away at your body
Ripping your soul to shreds.
Starve
Not enough
Never enough
Keep going
Can’t stop
Not yet
Not ever.
A ghost
Where you once lived.
Nothing is left
But a mirage of a girl
Who tried to soar
But fell.
A body in pieces.
A fractured mind
Shattered heart
Broken soul.
Empty
Except for him.
The devil that stole
All the life from within.
