Eyes

[QueenFaye]

Here's another one I'm working on.

I'm in my bed wide awake,
     fighting demons my body wants but my heart hates.

If I open my eyes 
     they're at my fingertips, ready to destroy me.

If I close my eyes
     they play a movie of all the things I've done.

I don't want to close my eyes
     because I'm afraid of what I'll see.

I don't want to open my eyes,
     but that pain is easier to bear.

So no matter what I do,
     I can't close my eyes.

Its a fair start. I would like to know what the demons are doing to to. What are your fears? What is playing in the movies? would tie the poem to together.
