Idk what this is, but, it exists

so, I was really upset, and I wrote these

monster
There’s a monster inside my head
He’s begging to be set free
He’s clawing out from his bed
He wants me
I walk through these halls
Keeping him in his cage
I listen as he calls
Should I let him take the stage?
I feel all the rage
I need to turn the page
Some say
He’s a demon
I need to fight
Others…
He’s a figment
Of my imagination
Something to blame
My problems on
I walk through these halls
Keeping him in his cage
I listen as he calls
Should I let him take the stage?
I feel all the rage
I need to turn the page

monster II
Damned to hell,
Eternally in your grasp,
Penetrating the sole.
Resting your evil voice in my head,
Everlasting hate for me.
Sending words,
So sour, so foul.
Idolizing my tears,
Operating on my fears,
Never letting others understand.

and if you do
you know his name
and if you don’t
you still do
just look again…

the girl
With an abundance of fear
I sat there
Wanting it shed a tear
No one would care
Others were always lear
I just hid behind my hair

With an abundance of fear
I sat there
Wanting to shed a tear
No one would care
Others were always lear
I just hid behind my hair

I just hid
Behind a mask
That’s all I did
And no one would ask

I just hid
Behind a mask
That’s all I did
And no one would ask

I would lie
And wish to die

I would lie
And wish to die

Then…
She said
“Hi”

These are actually quite good! I enjoyed reading them! I’d love to hear the stories behind the poems, if you don’t mind sharing

hi @NateTriesAgain the first one is me dealing with the voices in my head and the crazy stuff I see that’s not really there. the second one is pretty self-explanatory, just look at the capital letters. The third I wrote for my girlfriend. Also, thank you for everything…

<3 you’re welcome friend.
Feel free to share any of your poetry with us!! This is good :slight_smile:
I know what it’s like to have those crazy voices in my head too and to face depression. You’re not alone, and you also described it really well. <3
