Thoughts I can’t seem to quiet down.
It’s loud and lonely in my head.
Silence will not come for me tonight.
No peace and comfort to cradle me.
Cold and alone, I worry and reconsider with only my thoughts to keep me company.
They are never ending.
One after another flying towards the front of my mind.
I try to dodge them but its no use. There is nowhere to hide from myself.
For once I would like them to stop their constant murmurs and screams.
I remember a time long ago where peace was all I had
Now its questions and scenarios.
I will never regain that calm for I know too much and expect too much now.
Quiet. Silence.
These are things I no longer know.
