Sounds lead to death

by Angel   May 2, 2012


The guys of the past,
Haunt my dreams.
My voice is drowned out,
By thousands of screams.

The voices I hear,
Are louder than life.
But they only tell me,
To pick up the knife.

Take the knife,
And drive it straight through my heart.
You think that's bad?
Well this is just the start.

The voices, they make,
Everything seem so severe.
They seems so loud,
I'm surprised no one can hear.

The noises, the sounds,
And the screaming too.
Is there someone who can help?
Please tell me who.

Every scream,
Every sound.
How am I not deaf?
They seem so loud.

Every little sound,
Pierces me like a knife.
And the only way to stop it,
Is to end my life...

    What I would have liked is if at some point when talking about the voices you say something like," listen...can you hear them?" that's what I was feeling. something eerie making it more haunting rather than sad and tragic. still, it's fine as it stands.

    Another emotional and dark poem...the imagery is very clear to my mind..your poem is like having auditory hallucination--that there are voices teasing you or pulling you to do bad/unusual things..anyways, you hear these things because your drowning from feeling of alone...depression..stress and etc., that you feel there is no one can help/comfort you...

    --by the way, the whole piece is amazing, you are talented...have a great potential and skills in writing poetry..keep up always the good work
