Do you know how hard it is,
Having all these little people in my head,
But...
Knowing what is right,
What is wrong,
What is normal,
What is not.
I know how people should be,
I know how i should live,
I know what i should think...
So why can i?
You dont know,
You dont understand...
Or do you?
Are our thoughts alike?
Are there other people who think as i do?
Am i not alone?
Or....
Am i mad?
Am i crazy?
Yes there are little people in my head...
But they are...
Little people that help me,
They are there for me,
They get me though.
So...
Please leave them alone,
Dont prod at them,
Dont poke at them,
Just let them be.
They may make me crazy,
They may make me mad,
But they help me.
They dont hurt you,
They dont hurt me,
They save me.
So please,
Dont destress at them any more,
Dont ask about them, any further,
Just please,
Let them be...
The little people in my head.

Wow! You have shared your feelings and your message very powerfully here in this poem. You are so right when you say these little people are there to help you. I understand that when things are too tough to cope with, they take over to protect you. I am sorry you had such a painful childhood. You deserved to be cherished and loved as all children do. Blessings, Patty

You are not crazy just a wounded soul travelling this journey. Accept the Little People for who they are for what they can do for you. In time I pray that they will fade and your life will find its true meaning. Beautifully penned with emotions that break my heart. Beautiful poet I wish you Love and Light.
