The voices

I feel trapped by inside this cell

This prison if insecurities and lies that I tell myself every day

"You're not worth it"

"Nothing matters "

"You Are A Failure!"

"NO ONE COULD EVER LOVE SUCH A FUCKED UP PERSON "

I hear these words

But are they just words?

Are they really lies?

Or are they more...

Maybe they are right

Maybe

Is their hope left in that "maybe" or am I truly lost inside myself

Have I drown already

Will I ever learn to swim through these waves

Constantly crashing over me with the same words

Why do I persist

It would be so much easier to just let them cary me under

But what about those beside me

Struggling just as I am

Trying to swim trying to make it

We lift each other up

But if I were to give up,

Would they give up too?
