The Voice Inside my Head

Poem Commentary

this is true Howard and Evan are the representations of my inhabithion and then some.

The Voice Inside my Head

Those voices inside my head telling me right and wrong
They tell me you suck and don't forget be strong
They push me to do my best and push me to the ground
Some time they just need to be lost and never found

These voices are friends when I have none
But then again they are part of the reason
The reason sometimes I just want to die
For they know me better than I know I

One is forty the other only five
Howard the old and Evan the alive
Howard is the you better stop while you can
And Evan the go for it man

Two opposite personalities in my mind
It is time for them to stop and let me do my own find
I need them I hate them I can't tell
If I should get them out or guard them well.

I Dont blame you and the voice inside I only blame the voice you have to hide. Sometimes voices inside are really the voices you need to hear coz it´s conscious that is gonna remind you and it´s your heart and no body elses that is gonna judge.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
