Poems

Consuming Voices
The voices in my head
chewing up my brain
consuming what is me
and driving me insane
The predators pursue me
I run to stay away
but eventually they catch me
I'm their favorite prey
My own worst enemy
is always deep inside
self doubt and deprecation
masticating on my pride
I have no more self esteem
it's like I have been ******
pounded, tenderizing me
nothing left but bones
Simply a skeleton left
of my former self
I have destroyed all of me
through the loss of mental health
based on Starsets carnivore
