Monsters And Demons – A Tanka

Monsters and demons

Hide inside each one of us

Life of denial

Scared to face our deepest selves

Afraid of what we might see

    Yet, the only way to grow is to face and defeat such demons.

      So true, yet so many people are in denial that they have them, its quite sad.

    Afraid of what we might see and afraid of what we might be challenged to love…

      Very true my friend, this is how we confine ourselves instead of living life to the fullest.

      Isn’t that the truth, they certainly are sneaky little devils. :)
