The voices

The voices

A Poem by Richard Anthony Goulart

AHHHHHHH   They scream at me
They tell me that you are here to get me
Why do you need the be the one to get me
Just go away and away you leave me
AHHHHHHHHHH1!
Today I listened to the heartbeat of a thousand sins
Touched the hands to a million souls and saw in myself
A will to survive even the hardest of times and today I shall endure
because a hundred thousand time I have screamed for you to leave
Six million people heard my plea for you to vacate my mind
Yet a hundred thousand times you have told me no.
You scream back at me that the world is my enemy.
AHHHHHHH   They scream at me
They tell me that you are here to get me
Why do you need the be the one to get me
Just go away and away you leave me
AHHHHHHHHHH!
Today I am taking no more of this torment
Your life long control of me has faltered
I'll take that moment of hesitation and pounce
Pounce and take back my mind that is rightfully mine
I'll tell you once that you can leave or get thrown out
Take whats yours and leave or and leave whats mine and scream
You scream at me and tell me that you will not leave me
AHHHHHHH   They scream at me
They tell me that you are here to get me
Why do you need the be the one to get me
Just go away and away you leave me
AHHHHHHHHHH!
I scream back and tell you that you have no choice
Today I will do away with the screaming in my head
My enemy is not the world but the thing that is my own head
Calculating and crunching numbers, thinking too much and fighting reason
The world is corrupt and no one is trustworthy and everyone is faulty
Today I see the world as it really is and I let you take back my head
Take it back and control me once more, I am yours
