I hear voices talking in my head
They say things that make me see red
I can't believe some of the things they said
They told me that I'd be better off dead

I see people living in hardened sin
Immersed enough to make my head spin
I don't know why I let these people in
They make me retreat inside my second skin

When you spew words of poison
I feel light headed and I start to weep
Your head is full of poison
You make me weary and I want to sleep

This world hurts me in ways I've never known
I need to find my way all on my own
I let out a sigh, a long and weary groan
For I let you cast the first stone


When you spew words of poison
I feel light headed and I start to weep
Your head is full of poison
You make me weary and I want to sleep
This world is full of poison
It gets so much that I just can't stand
People are so full of poison
They go through life selling their own brand

its a beautiful poem Rhy.. so full of emotion.

great work bud

Pure dope, dude!

I felt like it should be read with a fast cadence or a sort of driving beat.

Very cool!!

Very haunting...perhaps you could use some brainwave entrainment to help you with that mind-chatter. [b] j/k I love your writing.

Good beat and rhythm, the rhyme was set up nicely and the poem was structured with equal stanzas and sustained a flow throughout the poem. Excellent work it was good.
