Cast Out These Demons

Cast out these demons

That torture my wretched soul

Like the bane of Job

Carrying on by faith

Though physically tormented

~

Am I strong enough

A question I’ve often asked

Getting no response

I fear that I’ve been given

Much more than this man can bear

~

Destined to struggle

Though I know I’m not alone

This holds no comfort

As I wander through this world

Defending against evil

~

The mortal evil

That plagues all men from within

Instilled at their birth

Threatening to damn our souls

To the immortal hellfire

~
