Am I trapped?
Encased?
Is this a reality,
Or just my brain?
Am I emotionless,
Or in pain?
Will it be over,
For the following day?
Do I listen to the voices,
Or just turn them away?
What if they're right?
But what if they stay?
Do I allow them to take over?
Do I allow them to control?
Will I ever find peace?
Will they ever fall weak?
Do I close my eyes to see?
Do I hold my breath to listen?
Are they real?
Are they here?
Or am I becoming the fear? 
Will they stay,
Or will they go?
Will you hold my hand until I know?
Such a beautiful poem. Someone very dear to me suffers from OCD and this poem has reflected the struggle so accurately. Looking forward to reading more of your content, keep going! :)
