demons becoming shallow

i've been lonely nearly all my life.
for a while, books & music comforted me
on the days that were
especially difficult.
but today, nothing seems to soothe my thoughts.
no matter how many cigarettes i smoke,
drugs i swallow
and words i write,
there's still something 
deep inside
that keeps gnawing at
the surface
to burst out.
