The voices in my head echo and ring. Like a soft melody they sing. Never stopping. Always there. Their chitter chatter drives me insane. I rock and rock they call my name. I plug my ears, they seem to scream. Then I realize it was only a dream. I close my eyes the voices start. Keep them open always open never closing. I lie awake. I blink they scream, I dream they scream. Endless cycle I can't defeat, the voices will fade. But not for long. Their echos become more clear. So much easier to hear. Only I seem to know they're there. When others see me they seem to stare. I guess only to me they are there. I close my eyes to rid the stares. Now only hearing the loud blares. The voices boom. I'm alone in my room. Here I'm safe. But, not for long the voices stop and so do I. Motionless I lay and the voices fade away.
