Fighting for my own soul.

When I saw you for the first time. 
With your wickedness and sorrow painted across your face with blood.
The emptiness and haterd from your eyes 
Stabbing my soul causing me to become weak. 
You stared at me with a smile of a demon.
I stared back.
I screamed you can't have me. 
You will not take my soul!
It stared back bringing coldness to my being.
Fear engulfed my body freezing me in place. 
Tears fall like meteors hitting the floor setting my world on fire.
SILENCE!
the world falls still.
The demon winks an smiles 
It whispers you will see. 
Then disappears into me.
