Is it me, or is it my ears,
That keep hearing sounds so near?
A pounding, a drilling,
Like gears that keep spinning.
I couldn’t stop,
Nothing could,
I melt, I break—
I wish I would.
With all the juice,
I freeze, I sneeze.
With all the germs,
I ooze, I wheeze.
Yuck,
Stuck,
This *****.
Who would have thought this would start?
Truth be told, this is no gold,
Nor silver, nor bronze—
Just stories retold.
Hush—my voice, keep it down,
It hurts inside, the things I drown.
Stomp,
Punch—
What is this?
The feelings I have, within.
Full of rage, full of fire,
This place no longer feels entire.
Stop!
I yell,
I scream—
This must not tear between.
