Voices|🔏

I am not suicidal

They started years ago

Back when I was young and pure

Back in my darkest years

They still come in every now and then

I ain't no new psycho on the street

I am merely just like you

But with more friends

Everyday can be lonely

Without a friend in sight

I'm stuck with these voices

I make it through though

They push me to get better

Sure, I keep it a secret

But I'm not afraid

This ain't very well explained

But

They aren't my demons

They don't tell me to die

They don't tell me to cut

I'm not sure how to speak of this to my parents

But maybe a poem could help?

These voices are nice

These voices have changed me in a way

Like songs, they talk all they want

But I'm in full control

I silence them

I can never go a day without them

They are part of me like family

I cannot get rid of them

I'm not sure a therapist can help

Because if they knew of the content in my mind

That's a lot of explaining to do

We laugh together

We die inside

We cry together

We will cherish the years together

Screw society for all we care

Mock us

Hurt us

All you want

But one day

That might come to bite you back in the butt

I'm not mad

I'm not sane

I'm merely like you

The voices can change us all

Including yours

Like Toby's said

"Who needs a social life when I have the voices inside my head!"
