#loudness
I’ve been told I’m loud
Once, twice
Every time I open my eyes
Laughing, talking, defending
But even loudness has an ending
Like when I’m in despair
And no one notices
It ain’t fair
Yes, loudness is my defence mechanism
Only because I hate stoicism
When I’m fed up, I scream and shout
Not knowing that I’m underwater
And nothing seems to matter
Sound travels different here
And in the end, no one will hear
But I push and drain out every drop of voice that I have left
Still not enough
Seems like loudness comes to an extend
That’s something that I dread
Never loud enough to be concerned
When will this circle ever end?
So I scream and shout again
Now knowing i’ve reached the seabed
It stops
The last blister of oxygen reaching the surface
No one is here
No one hears
I’m alone

They say silence speaks volumes,
but they must never have heard the
howling wind
shattering the ground's heart,
tearing the clouds apart.

its too loud
too loud too loud too loud
the room is filled with sound
and focusing on that
just makes the thoughts of you
become more vibrant.
why don't we laugh like that anymore?
why don't we sit and talk like that anymore?
why don't we share memories anymore?
where are you? its too loud.
