silence, silence
ringing in my ears
clock ticking on the wall
a lonely battle cry
darkness creeps over the room
as still as a deep well
and turbulent as my dreams
tired of the sound of my own breath
I scream
so I can hear something
to cover the sound of the clock
ticking ceaselessly
to know that I am alive
to not feel so alone ~
