Used to feel this way when I was in my teenage years. Struggled out of it thanks from the support and understanding from friends and family. Things changed a lot after this..

I stay in my room

to avoid the devil’s whisper.

Because when I’m out it never bloom.

Instead it is always a disaster.

I get criticised, blame, and accused most of the time.

They’d always say that I did a crime.

For this the devil would whisper,

that this life don’t matter.

That I should end my life to be free.

I know & I know so well that this is a big fat lie.

If commit this dreadful sin,

I would be in pain for eternity.

And so I rush back into my room

to avoid the devil’s whisper.

When I’m out, I get stabbed on my back

a million times.

Yet nobody could hear my cries.

Again, I go back inside my room to weep &

avoid the devil’s whisper.

At times the devil’s whisper is quite strong,

Yet I fight it by reading the sacred scriptures..

    Honey the devil doesn’t whisper, he is loud and very apparent, pick up your bible and laugh at him, then you won’t hear him anymore.

    Very nice! I often have to turn up the music to drown out his whispers… that or read a few chapters of the Bible! Just remember that you have more control than he does.

    The devil works in a lot silly and embarrassing ways and God will show his might in thousand, miracles that would surely bring great relief. Faith is something. I knew you have it.
