empty noises
hollow sounds
is what i hear
loneliness well of course
is the sound that i most fear
hearing
wind
kids
outside my windows
my location far away
curtains closed
night or day?
i'll never know
cause the other noises hurt my ears
so i sit far off in a corner
because the bangs on the door
don't seem to drain out
the loneliness
