White noise in my ears
Attempting to drown out
The voices in my head
Taunting and teasing
“You suck!”
Out of its cage
Depressions grip takes hold
Its talons digging in
To soft matter
“Nobody like’s you”
Lifting the mania high
And dropping it in to
The barbed nest of dejection
To be swallowed
“You can’t do anything right”
Is there no release
No cure from this hideous
Invisible entity
That strangles the soul
“Don’t bother trying, you’re rubbish”
ignore the bastard’s taunts. easier said than done i know, but you are brilliant

That voice is a damn liar. Don’t listen (easier said than done). You can listen to mine instead: you’re wonderful. keep going. I like you.

I have been there – way too many times. But, it will pass, because everything that arrives must eventually depart. Peace . . .

Thanks Tara, that means a lot. I just have moments of doubt, then the anxiety kicks in and then it’s best just to get it out ❤️

Very well expressed. These voices of negative talks can be very depressing but there is always strength within us to capture and to hold onto. Beautiful
