The voices an endless echo
bouncing through these corridors
of my restless mind

calls for help
unable to escape the maze
I have entwined between my ears

And while thoughts seeming nonchalant
flow out with every breath
my lips are forever sealed
for any words imposed to leave impressions

so for now it seems I am forced to bear
shouts the multitude of thunderclaps
a constant booming behind my eyes

and it’s sputtering out these cries  
that can stop me from drowning in all that is unheard
