The Voices

After Thomas Hood

The voices that call to all of us are there,

Whether it be loud or soft, the

Choice is completely up to you. They hold true

In the animated silence.

Here stand the thoughts that don't know what love is,

They fidget and sweat, self-conscious

Of how they look, how they dress, and

How they act. Screaming for the voices to not leave them alone.
