Escape-poem
Escape
Can’t escape the voices inside my brain
Sometimes medication doesn’t do a thing
They’re tearing at me
They wont let it be
The slightest slight
The smallest insult
They remind me every day and night
Scream at me
Tell me its time for revenge
I don’t want it
I don’t want it
Do i?
They’re the voices inside my own head
So
They’re me aren’t they?
At least a little bit
But they wont stop screaming
I just want them to stop
I don’t want to do what they say
God couldn’t save me that day
Medication cant save me now
Whats left
Who’s left
But me
