Quiet
October 15, 2015
I think I'm going to have to get
A new pair of earbuds
To drown out the sound of the world
Because it keeps getting
Louder
And the volume on my thoughts can't go any
Higher
My bones are brittle
And my eyes are
Grey
With the weight of this oblivious world
My veins flood with rhythmic blood
But will my lungs take the toll
Of inhaling
Exhaling
Because I can't hold on any longer
I'm just dancing on the edge of anticipation and
Insanity
When will my heart
Break off
Into the world's
Cold fire?
