I know its bad but tell me what ya think.

The silence is so deafening
and the darkness all too blinding,
as I sit searching for the answers
but more questions are all I'm finding.

Though easier to just give up
my search for truth must be resumed,
and seperation of what appears
to be lies or the simply assumed.

Morals are lost in the madness
but right and wrong I can't confuse,
the spirit of death holds out his hand
but to give in now I must refuse.

All though I'm all alone in this room
Demons of my mind surround me,
waving their fingers in my face
and giving me the third degree.

Closing my eyes to make it stop
then opening them to mark the start,
of my quest to make the voices stop
and to gain back control of my heart.

I did like the technique you used in this poem, it is very admirable.  I must eternally compliment you on your inate technique.  
The feminine rhyme in the first stanza was very nice... I love those things.  
Keep posting your poetry, I have no critiques on this one.

Very well done here. I fully enjoyed the read!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Not a bad piece but I must just make a small remark on the rhythm as at times it was out of beat with the last verse and I had to read it again to work out the rhyme.  Other than that not bad at all!
