Voices

Why won't they go away? Why
won't they leave me alone? Why
do i feel like this? why do
they have to know
everything about me? I haven't
hurt them yet.but if they don't I
will.I just want to be alone
with my thoughts and
here they come barging
in with theirstupid questions
''Are you ok?" ''Do you need help?" ''Do you need this?"
''Do you need that?".I just get
so tired of it.they won't
leave me alone.the voices
in my head won't go away.No
matter what I think or
what I say or what I do.they
won't go away.They never
shut up.iIm not crazy.just
because i hear voices in
my head doesn't make
me crazy.They make me
do things.some things I
don't want to do.But i have
to do them because
they said to.Sometimes
I hurt people,sometimes I do
worse things than that.I
remember I burnt someones
house with them still in it.But
oh well.they shouldn't have been bad.if they had been good
they wouldn't have had to
die.but thats their problem
not mine.they really
should know better.if they
would have listened they
could still have a chance.
not anymore.the voices tell
me they weren't listening,so
they deserved to die.if the
voices say so i guess they
are right.i remember hacking
somebody up with a saw and sticking their body parts
in a
bag and then sending
them to their relatives.i remember breaking every bone in
someones body and
then cutting
them with a knife.i'm not crazy.don't tell me
i'm crazy or something bad will happen to you.
