VOICES
My mind screams to be set free,
From the voice that screams like a banshee.
I cannot stop it from screaming,
I wish I was only dreaming.
I can try to run away from this agony,
But this is supposed to be my personal misery.
You see this was given to me by my family,
And no matter what I do there is no exit for me.
I tear at my ears hoping to stop the whaling,
But it seems to be unfailing.
I can’t take it anymore,
This life I have I no longer adore.
I can’t stop the voices inside my own brain,
I don’t think it is something I can continue to maintain.
I can’t live this way anymore,
The medicine isn’t working like it did before.
This life is not for someone like me,
I don’t want a life that will never be happy.
