You're missing a closing bracket in your if statement... Try this instead:

<?php if( get_post_meta($post->ID, "demo", true)) : ?> 
    <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"> 
        <img class="demo" src="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "demo", true) ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />
    </a>
<?php endif; ?>

Also, I believe your div should be an img tag... you might want to correct that as well. (edited above as well)
