Demons At Bay

I have many secrets,

Which could potentially be a weakness.

But I have to keep going,

Can’t have anything showing.

I have many thoughts,

Roped together like tight knots.

But I can’t stop,

Or I’ll burst with a, “pop!”

I have many demons,

Of which, leave me screaming,

But on the inside, of course

They’ll never find the source

Demons at bay,

Don’t lead me astray.

But I’ll keep them there,

For as long as I can bear.
