i really dont like my title
Inner Voices
i look into the mirror
what are you looking for
i see no change from this
constant,
unending,
monotony
of me
get a life
well, son, i’ve got one
and it may not be the best
but it sure as hell ain’t the worst
and i could climb higher or fall to my death
stay where you are
i don’t think i will, thanks
don’t take the risk
well, i’ll risk what i want
it’s my own neck
and i’m done listening to you
no don’t go!
i’m facing my demons
conquering my fear of heights
i’m leaving home
and conquering you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
in my poem, is it obvious that the speaker in italics is a voice in the protagonists head, or do i need to come right out and say it in the title like i have it now? opinions, please?
