Do you hear the voices too?

As I lay in bed  
I can hear the voices in my head  
 
I can hear the wind sneaking in through the window telling me to go outside & breath  
I can hear the walls telling me I spend too much time inside  
My shoes are saying I walk too much back & forth  
My laptop is saying people keep trying to say hello  
My light is off & my bed saying I spend too much time crying in the dark  
 
So I stand up  
 
I go outside  
I listen to the beautiful call  
the call of this wonderful world telling me I am loved.  
 
I go to the meadow & sit on the ground  
I was about to pick up a flower but something popped into my mind  
 
Why would I tear off the flower, if it will only wilt after?  
So I lay down with my elbows dug on the ground  
Looking down at this beautiful daisy admiring the sun  
 
As I lay on the ground  
I can hear the voices in my mind  
 
The daisy is looking up at me  
Telling me that she sees so much potential in me  
She keeps going on & on telling me what she thinks of me  
A tear of happiness lands on the ground  
& as it touched, the ground yells out  
“I’ll always be here for you when you fall.”  
I can hear the mountains not so far, yell out loud  
“& we will move if we’re in your path.”  
The sun makes my heart feel warm when it tells me it will shine
on a rainy day  
so I can see a rainbow at the end of the day.  
 
I lay down with my head looking at the beautiful color changing sky  
The sun is going down & it tells me it’s goodbye for now.  
The sky looks so alive & it says the north star will show me the way  
For a moment, I fade away  
 
I wake up to a splendid night  
I hear the crickets chirping  
I hear the night is sleeping  
I hear whispering  
 
It’s a full moon tonight  
& as I was about to go inside to sleep  
I hear the moon say…  
“As you sleep, I will make sure nothing happens to you.”  
& If the next day you’re not having a great day, remember what I say... I too shine in the dark, my love."
