Dead Sound

Silence so loud it screams in your ear

Ringing inside your head like a never-ending screech

Echoing through the mountains of your mind

Muting the outside

 

Left alone inside your own mind

A fog as a barrier between you and me

Blurry like ripples on water

Disorienting

Isolating

 

You try to scream

You try to yell

You try to fight against the current

That is drowning your vioice

But you can't

The silence pulls you down

Muffles your thoughts

Carries you away from the land of peace

And now you are lost at the sea of dead sound

Where you are alone

And no one understands what it's like to be

Disconnected from society

You think you are alone

You think no one could ever reach you

And rescue you from the thrashes of your thoughts

Maybe you are right

The silence will forever push you inside
