VOICES
Outcast within his own home
The loneliness finally took a toll
Unable to escape his insecure delusions
Disease masked the trepidation
Each character played a different role
Formulated in his mind to fill the void
He gave in with ease as they took control
Mind over matter did not matter anymore
Anxiety building deep inside
Grinning as he watched his family die
The whispers he heard in his head that day
All told him it was better this way
Now the world would remember his name
Everyone would know his kind of pain
