I was isolated and alone
Bereft and destitute
Until I met you
I can’t live without her
It’s all meaningless
Just sayings
Suddenly true
Give anything do anything
Sacrifice everything
Just for one night with
You in my arms
But I don’t deserve you
And my demon frightens
Even you my angel
My demon gives me strength
Sometimes it’s the only reason
I can go on
My oldest and most horrifying friend
Always there
Always waiting
Always present
My only constant companion
Without it I’d be lost
But for you
If I could I’d destroy it
And banish it back
To the depths of hell
From whence he came
But I don’t know how
So I’m lost
And lonely
And not even he can save me
This time
