Voices

Prolouge

"You're alone,"

"No one wants you,"

"No one needs you,"

"Just pick up the knife, it won't hurt much,"

"Come on, no one will even realise you are gone,"

"Either that or they just won't care,"

Tears run down my face. The voice in my head haunts me, sends me insane. I reach out for the knife, curling my fingers round it I pull it back with trembling hands.

"That's right now just slash it across your wrist, it will create a delicious scene of chaos,”

“No, no you’re wrong, SHUT UP, GO AWAY” I scream out loud, slashing the knife around at the imaginary enemy.

“Oh come on, you know you don’t want me to leave because then you know you’ll truly be all alone” It purred in its dark silky voice tauntingly.

“NO LEAVE ME ALONE” I scream once again only this time I dropped the knife with determination flaring in my eyes. It won’t win this time.

I hear a loud banging and yelling coming from the direction of the front door. Wiping the remaining tears from my eyes I manage to pull myself up off the floor and make my way over to the door. Unlocking it I open it just enough to peep out at whoever decided to disturb me. I see my neighbour looking angry.

“What?” I ask,

“Would you shut up your infernal screaming, you brat!”

She doesn’t seem to like me even though I barely speak to her

“Yes ma’am I didn’t mean to cause trouble” I apologize.

“Sure whatever just keep it down” she snorts.

“Pig” I whisper as I shut the door and lock it again.

Pushing my cascading curls over my shoulder I slump down onto the floor again. Dust irritates my nose and I sneeze sending dust flying. The colour difference in the floor is now extremely noticeable maybe I should clean up a bit. No use it’ll just get dirty again either that or I may have already given in to the voices crows of torment.

Why do I have a voice in my head that wants me to kill myself? Well I sure as hell don’t know. If I knew it would be so much easier because then I could finally get rid of it. Some just say I have a mental illness but truly I know different, there is nothing wrong with me. The voice is real and I’ll find out where and who it is and I will kill them!
