Silence

Silence the voices in my head especially those who wish me dead

Silence the voices who make me cry those who kill my will to survive

Silence the voices feeding on my brain, gnawing driving me insane

Silence the voices who silence me, silence them fu*king set me free

A poetry account on Instagram asked their followers to write a 13-word poem on silence. I participated, but later that night it triggered a creative flow inside me. So, I expanded on it. I’ve dealt with suicidal thoughts for as long as I can remember, even before I knew what suicide was (I would wish I was never born, or wish I could just die in my sleep). I never really knew why I was plagued with these constant, intrusive thoughts. Poetry is my therapy and my inner demons fuel my creativity.
