First time I’ve done poetry in a long while. forgive me.

I live with you inside me
Constantly in the back of my mind
You yell for the want of less of what I have an excess of
you weigh down my shoulders
Listening to the others telling me what I want to hear
Telling me of the happiness they think I have
Do they lie? I don’t think they would
Then why do I have you in me?
If you could only leave
i would be happy , finally
never have you threatened me as you do now
you almost killed me yesterday
some others make you obvious, but in me…
you’ve over stayed your welcome
I thought I had lost you long ago but ,no
Hell, I don’t even know how to spell your name
Here comes what I want. But it wont be there long
You wont let it
I know other people have you inside them
There is a look about us , a look of you.
Let us all go and do a favor to society and go.

i like the part about spelling its name. the last line didn't seem very final, but for being written after such a dry spell, i give you my kudos.
