Billy and the voices (Free verse) by SupremeDreamer
I'm pretty unemotional today
though hellish dreams coat the mental scenery.
Its a passing phase-
or so they say.
The voices, they like sharp objects
and enjoy when I play with them.
Scarred fingers seem pretty,
its a matter of taste-
or so they say.
Its annoying, this apathy
when the rage boils in the background.
No one can hear the sound of hate
or so they say.
I lost the bet;
the voices said that my girlfriend
would bleed like a running faucet.
Needless to say, I didn't believe them
but there she is, staining the carpet
Mom won't be happy.
Its a passing phase-
or so they say.
I'm not convinced.
