Small Price To Pay

So it is said
These Voices are in my head
Although i hear them aloud
Like im standing in a crowd
They say they come from my brain
And that I am not sane
So if these voices are actually me
Why do they not want me to be
Why do they talk of suicide
And get mad when i dont abide
Why do they want to see me bleed
All they want is for me to concede
This isn't what I want in my life
I don't want to pick up the knife
But sometimes I just want to obey
Just do whatever they say
Maybe they wouldn't be so mean
Maybe it would be a happier scene
Just a little physical pain
To get rid of all the mental strain
Seems like a small price to pay
To keep the voices at bay

Author notes

Just some thoughts about the voices I hear from my schizophrenia.

    i like it

    i now exactly what its like to hear voices. and its like u dont want to cut but sometimes you just have to listen. and maybe they will stop but they dont its like a complete take over and you dont know what is going on. i like the poem. its the truth right in plain sight and in words. good job
