My ears are ringing
From the noise in my head
Thought after thought
Situations
Ideas
Emotions
People
Relationships
Work
Educa­tion
Assignments
Tasks
I want it to just all pour out
But I have no where to dispose
Of the toxic waste
Burning me inside
So
I try to forget
I try to drown it out
I try not to see
Not to feel
Don’t get involved
Look away
Ignore
Repress
Hide
Turn the music louder
Maybe it’ll drown it out...
But it won’t
I know that
It’ll just leave my ears
Ringing
