The Voices that Betray Me

I've never really been the kind
Of person to be so naive;
Any insults sent their way,
They would instantly believe.

Yet somehow, some way,
Along the line I travelled,
My mind was lost, my thoughts changed
And hidden fears became unravelled.

"You're so ugly, you're so fat,
Why would anyone fall for you?"
Their taunting words of abuse,
I instantly thought as true.

I thought the voices would guide me,
Offer me reassurance, like a friend,
Yet all those constant thoughts did,
Was help me near my end.

They were like a curse in my head,
Leaking that constant evil breath,
And ultimately all they did for me
Was lead me towards the door of death.
