my head is constantly
filled with voices.
voices telling me
"you're a horrible person"
"you're not good enough".
and no matter how hard
i try to block them out,
to drown them in
my beloved words,
bury them in song lyrics,
recite bits of poetry
in order to cover up the voices
always yelling at me
it never works.
they're screaming at me
all the time.
and yet no one hears,
no one ever hears a thing.
