Tristan Palmer Poems

Voices echo throughout my head
As I lay here lifeless in my bed
Constantly reminding me how I'm a mistake
It won't be long until I break
...

As the sky darkens,
Light still tries to find a way to illuminate God's creation
It continues to shine until it has nowhere else to travel
Our body is a vessel
...

The sound of scratching rings as paranoia festers
My skin becomes a burning red as the chewed-down fingernails dig deeper
But the inflicted pain is dulled by the echoing voices
Just as I believe I have calmed Them,
...
