No More Demons


Tribalistic Mandala

For the first time in many many MANY years something happened, words started flying out of my brain, through a pen and onto a piece of paper.  I have books full of writing and poetry, but it's been so long since I wrote something like this that I can't even place or guess the year.

No more Demons
by Pamela (Pfalzgraf) Keller

When your demons from past and present take over your life,
they don't have to swallow you whole,
you have a choice to take control.
Don't be timid, don't be shy, throw back your head
 and say goodbye to all those monsters,
replace them with positive thoughts, love and control.
Don't be afraid, don't despair,
there are always better options.
I know because I've been there,
in the past and in the present.

It's not about being a victim or a survivor,
it's about how you live your life,
it's about how you feel inside,
how you care for and treat others.
Everyone handles life in their own ways,
judgement on how... is not our place, 

People talk bad about social media
but my reality is that sometimes its where I become grounded,
inspired to move forward in my life.
For me it's not a deity that takes control, it's me!
Because even a deity can't do it alone, 
We all have our own work to do.
