I stare at the ceiling
Lying in my bed
Afraid of the Voices
Shouting in my head.
Afraid of the silence
Playing videos all night
Alone in the darkness
Afraid of the light.
I listen to lectures
Ignoring whats said
To drown in that noise
The voices in my head.
I talk constantly
I have much to hide
Echoing loudly
the emptiness inside.
I use my words
To hide from my friends
Its standard practice
For one who pretends.
I know what to do
but I don't even try
Leaving my soul
To suffocate and die.
I make no effort
I dabble and pretend
Paralyzed and waiting
For this nightmare to end.
The day is not far
when Ill resort to lies
Extinguishing finally
The spark in my eyes.
I listen all night
I talk all day
I speak the most
when I've nothing to say.
-Yours Truly
