Lonely Man

deafening quiet

my bed.
where I lay
eyes focused on
the white
textured
ceiling.

sounds of the
city
were not
there.
the world quiet.
still.

nothing.

oh
but the sound
the soft, soft
repitious
beat of my
heart
against
the inside of my
chest.

my heart beat in my ears, soft.

nothing else at all.

this quiet
drove me mad.

this quiet
was so loud.

this quiet was so deafening loud.

my heart beats faster.

this quiet unmercifully
enveloping me
in
it's
entirity.

my heart pounds harder
speed quick.

this silence..

my room
beat with the beat of my
heart.
the sound
so
deafening
the beat
so
repitious
so
quick
so goddamn loud.

make it stop

stop the pounding in my ears
stop the blood in my veins

my room
beating tauntingly along
with
my heart.

oh god please help me.

the sounds
the quiet
the beat
the silence
my heart

I scream.

this goddamn silence,
so loud.
