Old Nightmares

Have you ever been visited by any of your old demons?

You know, those ones that keep you awake long into the night.

The ones that have your darkest days and deepest fears personally recorded, playing them over and over again within your mind?

 

Oh look, there's the one that looks like Alice.

She's still got that charred, blackened skin and burnt hair.

Just like the last time you saw her, when she set herself on fire right in front of you.

 

Oh, there's the one with Sam.

His eyes still have the same look of fear as they did when the seizure happened.

Though, they now have equal parts hatred and confusion now.

 

And then there's the shadow man.

Starring at me without a face.

Always mysterious, always present, and always an omen of evil.

 

So, I'll ask once more.

Have you ever been visited by any of your old demons?

Do they ever leave?
