Voices Poem by Moore Hope

The voices in my head are telling me what to do
The subconscious desires of want, the realities are true.
So then why don't I follow, why don't I give in?
Why don't I just follow my heart and commit the wrongly sin?
No, I know I must be strong and the feelings I must fight
It's hard when you know what you truly want but you hold your mouth shut tight.
The heart beats hard, a pounding drum, the veins in my head do throb
So hard the beats that when I sit with my head down it does bob.
Back and forth I sit and rock till the feelings do subside
I think of different things which make these feelings in my life collide.
Thoughts turn to my religion to the beliefs that I hold dear
The pathway to the gates of heaven and not the hell I fear.
I tell these voices to be quiet I hide them in my mind
So deep into the unconscious space where nobody will find.
But in my heart I'll always know these voices are still there
The truthfulness for the one I desire, for the one that I really do care.
