Voices

Why can't they just let me be?
Never resting,
Never relenting.
Never a moment of peace,
Or privacy.

Constantly talking and whispering to me,
Why can't they just shut up?
Always degrading me,
Making me feel worse.

Always talking at once,
Sometimes shouting.
Sometimes arguing,
Mostly ganging up on me.

Constantly laughing at me,
Making fun of me.
Making me want to scream out loud,
Wishing that they would go away.

Always judging me,
Judging the things I say and do.
Constantly making me paranoid,
Making me think people are always judging me.

Why won't they let me be?
Why can' they just shut up?
Why can't I ever get a moment of peace?
Will they last forever?
