Voices I Hear

Voices I hear And they are not dear, They bring me sadness and no cheer They even bring me fear. I hear them always at night I hear them in daylight, Them I cannot fight I hear them with fright. Whenever I am alone I still hear their repetitive tone, To them I am famously known They always moan. I hear them when I count sheep I hear them when I sleep, Worries I now keep I hear them when I weep. I hear voices when I walk They are whispering when I talk, They chat when I balk I hear them mock. I hear voices when I drink And I hear them when I think I hear them when I sink And I hear them when I'm in the pink. I hear voices when I pray But, salvation they do not say, They are speaking to me everyday Every second, is a replay. I hear voices when I'm with friends And when I'm doing odds and ends, When I try to make amends The voices transcends. I hear voices all the time With other voices they always chime, They treat me like grime Away fromthat anguish I can't climb. I always hear the voices speak They purposely make me weak, Help I always seek But, there is no help for the sinning meek. I hear the voices when I am ill Me they constantly grill, The voices are all real They have destroyed my will. I will hear the voices when I die Of course no-one will cry, The voices continually ask me why; Why did I lie. Randy L. McClave
