These Words Scream

Voices (#3)

These voices in my head won't shut up
They scream and shout for me to do things
They stab my brain with needles wrapped in words and fight every piece of strength I have left to shut them out
They control my brain, they rule my thoughts
I'm losing myself to what is within myself
I am diseased but also deceased
I am gone but I am here
I am your friend, I am your family member, I am your stranger, all at once
I see things that aren't there, I hear things that aren't there, I do things I'm not really doing
I don't know who I am anymore
I don't know what I am anymore
I want it to end
I need it to end
I need myself
