So many voices 

and they are all

speaking to me.

I close my eyes

and 

I try to breathe.

I will take one pill

than another,

two. 

~

So many voices

and they are all

speaking

to 

me.

I 

try

to 

focus

But my God

this shit 

won't do.

~

So many voices

and they 

all

are speaking

to me.

I push my head underwater

then begin

to breathe. 

It occurs to me

-Sometimes the lies

are all too

true.
