Shut-Up
Wet head
numbed pain
Brain dead
in vein
I'll take
another round
Anything to
drowned sounds
The voices
won't stop
There's heartbreak
childhood trauma
Many mistakes
family drama
Infinite insecurities
teenage pregnancy
Highschool dropout
failed relationships
And they
all have
LOUD VOICES
screaming remorse
The course
led to
Water downed
morals,, values
Truly lost
in darkness
Beer me
the remedy
That heals
all wounds
NOT REALLY
delayed reactions
To these
hereditary patterns
Delaying the
many battles
Inevitable war
necessary for
Needed change
To drunk
to care
To drunk
to feel
To drunk
to deal
With these
life long
CHILDHOOD PROBLEMS
not anymore
No more
eye sores
My reflection
getting better
With each
new look
I took
I felt
More proud
from results
To now
where I'm
Finally found
from within
Her loss
wrecked me
Hitting hard
rock bottom
Finally broken
words spoken
Play through
MY MIND
Get help
please Rob
HER VOICE
Through loss
came gain
Through pain
came beauty
My angel
saved me
But now
she's left
FOREVER GONE
she's missed
FOREVER MISSED
but I
Have to
move on
Without her
and without
These many
LOUD VOICES
There's heartbreak
childhood trauma
Many mistakes
family drama
Infinite insecurities
Teenage pregnancy
Highschool dropout
failed relationships
And realize
i must
Accept this
it's who
I AM
but doesn't
DEFINE ME
not anymore
So I
put down
The bottle
no more
Noises to
drown out
Thank God
I needed
Mental awareness
to learn
MENTAL-HEALTH
to overcome
THESE DEMONS

Wow Rob, I feel the weight and complexity of all those inner battles. You give the reader a clear sense of how those past traumas repeatedly attack your mental state. Solidified in your structure as you repeat the experiences in your poem. Then the clarity as your mindset takes stock and recognises the cycle of your personal mental battles. I feel you taking charge, saying enough is enough. Got my fingers crossed you can find that ray of light in life, feel happier in your headspace xx
Thanks Gwen , I'm getting back into making recorded poems and song freestyles and that seems to help alot. I'm past it all just like sharing to help others and remind myself to stay in check. I always appreciate your support :)
Yay Rob I do love your freestyle audios. So glad you find they help you. I will keep an eye out on here for any you post :) x
Well.. Well.. Rob.
Takling about spilling your guts!
its all there Sir.. your heart.. Your Soul.. your life.
and you are not alone my friend..
so many of us are dealing with those voice lurking in the crevices of our minds
but a brighter and better day is coming my friend.
keep looking up.. keep reaching out.. keep believing in yourself.
and by all means.. surround yourself with positive people.
Besides my son, immediate family, my pup ( Buster) and Co workers...... I'm glued to my laptop or phone on here.... lol So I think I'm doing great in that department ...... :)
thanks for the support and inspiration, your work is always relatable and relevant to my struggles and you wear your heart on your sleeve with those impulses ! Always a pleasure to chat with you WB! Your friend and fellow poet~Rob
