I hear voices...

I hear voices...

A Poem by Christopher Paul

I hear voices in my head
They just scream and shout
They distract me
They fill me full of doubt

They tell me things
I don't want to hear
They make me scared
They play upon my darkest fears

They tell me they're right
They tell me I'm wrong
They make me hate my self
They tell me I don't belong

I don't believe them
They're just in my head
But sometimes the things they say
Make me wish I were dead

They tell me I'm insane
They tell me I'm mad
They tell me all the helps in vain
They say I make my loved ones sad

I never wanted to hurt anybody
But why don't they understand?
I didn’t choose to be this way
Life is never planned

I can’t take this anymore
I don't want to see my loved ones cry
The pain is too much, it hurts to the core
I'll do anything to make this stop
Slit my throat and let the blood flow...

It's wonderful how you use negative incidents in your life positively in your writing.

Dark and kind of mysterious if you come to think about it....
Like who's that voice that talks you to you?
I know it ain't the damn devil lmfao
Is this voice you or people who are surrounded by you?
Making your atmosphere much much weaker....

I enjoy reading / writing dark poetry. You send the message well here. Nice job!

The first three lines of every paragraph work together well, but the last line of each seems a big longer, and it kind of throws it off a bit.
But other than that, it was very good
