Chaosis
Can You Hear The Awful Singing?
All of the voices in my head
Screaming and screeching as they split me in two
All of them shrieking and wishing for death
Sometimes I listen and I long for it too
Listen to the voices, scream in agony
Tearing and clawing their way out of my chest
Screaming and crying in futility
Sometimes I wanna kill them just so I can rest
God, forsaken in his winter hell
Praying for someone to release him from this
Trapped and lost in this empty shell
Broken and rotting and it reeks of piss
God abandoned us in this fucking place
Sometimes I wanna kill him 'til I remember he's dead
Sometimes I want to rip the skin from off my face
But then I sink my claws in and it splits my head

From someone who also deters negative vibrations in life, I too had struggled a lot in the past. This poem is somehow relatable for those who are experiencing mental health issues like me. Very relatable
