Possessed?

Why did I write this? Well, believe it or not, someone used to tell me that they thought I was possessed. They told me to go and pray the demons out. I didn’t know how to do that, but I tried. Others at church tried as well, but guess what? Nothing ever came out! Throughout the years I could never shake the feeling that I might be possessed. It even plagued me with a diagnosis of schizophrenia for a while. I’m glad that part of my life is over because the medication was eating my brain! Lol, anyway, I have come to the realization that I am not possessed. Thankfully it is not a factor of stress in my life any longer. 

 

                                                                                                     

 

Possessed?

 

Within a melancholy state of mind

I sing

I dance

Block out the thoughts

Could these thoughts possibly be mine?

Maybe they are not

 

Perhaps an evil spirit sits

Upon my back and whispers in

Things I never wanted to find out

Or wished I had forgot

 

Am I possessed, you ask

How preposterous that sounds

To think that you would think of such a thought

Perhaps I am oppressed

As demons crawl around my head

They try to burrow lies inside

Accusatory thoughts 

 

Just say a prayer, they said

Yet I did not know how to pray

The demons out that were not there

 

Even though evil may chase me

Even though I get confused

They will never enter into

A place where I am sealed

 

I know that if someone hates me

It is not their hate that stands before me 

But influences from spiritual realms

That most are too afraid to see
