The Voices

Walking through the shadows
As the evening turns to dusk
Train of thought so narrow
And my cool demeanor starts to rust
Children playing in the street
The smell of freshly mown grass
The roses so sickeningly sweet
And I stop as a car comes to pass.

The children could be demons
They'll follow me all the way home
The dangers rise as darkness deepens
The roses are an omen of how I am alone
The man in the car is after me
Deep inside me I know he sees.

Then why don't I just kill him?
No one will ever know
Or the evil childrens lives for his,
Just approach them now, nice and slow....

4. A poem about Bi Polar Disorder/Depression/Schizo
'zombiefiedmonkeycheese' monkey cheese rocks, don't you diss it XD

Option 2

Please do not think I am a psycho, this was for a contest; I do NOT think like this, just thought I'd clarify.
I'm inksplatterskitty and I am not a psycho, just someone who can put themselves in anothers shoes for a couple of minutes.
This was written in the view of a schizophrenic.

        good child!
        okay

        well i think this poem starts out sounding like it might just be a cliche wanna be horror romace type thing. but read on a little and BAM
        it hits you right in the face. its amazing. the pure...cynical ism of this is amazing. its just so..suspicious and borderline psychotic, i LOVE it. great write altogether. some parts were a little forced though. i mean..the second line of this couplet:

        The car knows what I see and think
        The man is after me; I saw him wink!

        seems like it was just there for rhymes sake, and doesnt have a real purpose. hm. this will definitly be difficult to judge.
        cheers and thanks for the entry.

    Very interesting. USing a voice, and creating things such as evil children and a man that winks at you. I like this poem. Good luck in the contest.

    Your thoughts here descend almost in a dark, darker and darkest pattern. Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.
