when they come

what do you see
when the demons come?
there in the dark
when you're all alone.

from out of the past.
the memories,
the demons,
that can't be cast.

the thoughts
that haunt you.
the feelings
that taunt you.

what do you see
when the demons come?

me?
i see me.

Outstanding!, Thought provoking, and has an impact... I find myself trying to remember.."What" is it that I see?
Thank you!

And thank you also for your comments on my board!

This is damn good man. I would just switch the bottom up a bit. Maybe combine the 2 two-line stanzas together... sometimes that kind of an imagistic usage of the words themselves as breaks works out... but I think I would like to see a bit more of a continuity. Bravo.
