"The Voice"

'THE VOICE'
The voice echoes,
With in my mind.
Screaming repeatedly
For me to run
Until I collapse.

My feet heavy
With the fear of loneliness.

The voice becomes
Louder and louder
With each passing moment
Run Kris Run
Get away from all the pain
That has been done.

I pick up the gun
In a plea to myself
To make the voices stop.

A Finger upon the trigger
The voices screaming
I cannot make heads or tail
Of their true meaning.

No more voices,
All thoughts ceased.
My body lays there
Finally I am released.

Wow great poem- I think you captured the hopelessness well. Though it was a sad poem it really kept you reading to the end to find out what happened. Stay Happy :)

"Blue Water Baptism"

by Kimberley Linstruth-Beckom



"Blue Water Baptism" is my second collection of poems ranging in topic from views on death, God, friendships, and society. These poems were written in the course of ten years and show the "20-something" state of mind that transitions into a "30-something" mentality.
