Whispers

I hear the floor

Whisper

As my mind ticks

In my head

I feel like crawling

Deeper, deeper

Listening to the voices

In my ear

Telling the world

What I don’t want to hear

I feel alone

And still

The walls speak

And when alone

I sink

On tears

I feel as though

The world could be

Empty

And still the world would talk

And I’d feel alone

I hear the floor

Whisper

As my mind ticks

In my head

I feel like crawling

Deeper, deeper

Listening to the voices

In my ear

Telling the world

What I don’t want to hear

I hear the floor

Whisper

As my mind ticks

In my head

I feel like crawling

Deeper, deeper

Listening to the voices

In my ear

Telling the world

What I don’t want to hear

How long in my sorrow

How long on my tears

I feel as though I have been left for so long

How long how many years

I hear the floor

Whisper

As my mind ticks

In my head

I feel like crawling

Deeper, deeper

Listening to the voices

In my ear

Telling the world

What I don’t want to hear
