ONLY IN MY HEAD

Voices in my head
Never cheer or praise
Laughter only when they mock me
Highlighting all my inadequacies 
Making me feel only shame.

Voices in my head 
Loudest when my eyes are closed
Never let me rest
Bringing up all my flaws
Making me feel so sad.

Voices in my head 
Causing just pain
Screaming I'm not enough 
Even when I do my best
Making sure I feel unworthy.

Voices in my head 
Picking apart my sanity 
Creating false narrative 
Questioning my memories 
Making me feel insane.

Voices in my head 
I wish to silence
I hope they'll go away
Leaving me alone
Making me feel at peace. 

Voices in my head 
I know is me
Maybe if I went away 
They'll finally go too
No more inadequacies, sadness or shame.
