The Demon!

I wrote this a while ago and thought that I would share it. I may publish it in my upcoming book. It is a pretty dark poem, but dark poems made Edgar Allen Poe famous.
Darkness approaches and night sets in,
The evil things lurk attempting to draw you in,
They feed on your heart and feed on your mind,
Leaving your body a tattered peeled rind.

Your thoughts are adrift and your soul is torn,
Beware of this monster or you will be scorned,
The harder you fight, the stonger it grows,
Feeding on your pain, pushing you below.

You can feel its claws deep in your bowels,
You can feel it's teeth piercing your brain,
Why does a demon named Love,
Cause us so much pain?
