"The Voices"
The voices in my hair
Always leave me with despair.
Where'd they come from?
Why're they here?
They stay brief
Then disappear
The first voice was a fry;
High and squeaky like a fly.
Does he need me?
Is he scared?
Nah, call him back
I wouldn't dare.
The second was a man;
A voice so firm, like big, strong hands.
Why's he calling?
Do I know him?
Perhaps I'm needed
On his whim.
The third voice was evil;
Quite a personality upheaval.
What does it want?
What can this mean?
A demon's paging me;
His soul unclean.
These three friends I have
Caused me wounds that needed a salve.
They haunt my days
And sleepless nights,
Sometimes after
I have huge fights.
These voices I hear
Are driving me mad,
But maybe their company
Is not quite so bad.
