The voices speak in monotone
too quiet for others to hear
with leaps and bounds
reveal my deepest fears
you're ugly
you're stupid
their truths pound on
accompanied by those of others
you slut
you whore
how can that be
I've never even had my first kiss
I envy the birds and the flowers and trees
who lead simple existences
I don't get such luxuries
the voices speak in monotone
louder than you think
