Voices

Stop! Shut up! Get out of my head!

The voices are killing me! I'd almost rather be dead.

Inside my head, a sea of voices will riot.

Stop! No! Shut up! Please be quiet!

Though I search for some peace, solace I do not find

I'm trapped in here! Whith these voices in my mind.

I'm quickly losing any bit of sanity I had.

The screaming and laughing! It's driving me mad

Though I search for some peace, solace I do not find.

I'm trapped in here! With these voices in my mind.

How I relate to this everytime I come home from work doing an evening shift and when I try to sleep I can't switch off with work going round in round in my head and driving me mad so in the morning I'm beat like I've done two shifts. Very nice write here well done with the imagery

I generally have great control over the voices in Jamestown
but sometimes they want to pop in and out around bed-time:(
Thanks for sharing and b-blessed!

a relatable poem, it happens to me a lot especially during nights and sometimes continue up to morning. the flow and rhyme is very good and so is the content. Nice work :)

This feeling of losing ones sanity is very well conveyed Shadow. And yet ...the formatting is so ..well its so rigid and uniform - Im not suggesting fire it all over the place to show the unorganised mind just that, different formatting could give it so much more, I feel.
As you know Im a fan and I think this is another good write by you.
:)

This is such a relatable struggle. Just reading this stressed me out, but in a calm way. I almost don't know how to explain it. Well done.
