Sounds





The sound of the Rain

Can be such a pain

It sounds like the water

Washing out my Brain.

The buzz of a clock

Vibrates in my head

Sounds like a drill

They took to my skull.

Sometimes the sound of ...

Just plain talking

Makes me feel like

Simply walking away.

The sounds of everyday life

Now gives me such strife

Sometimes they just hurt

From inside my head.

Who can understand the sounds

just the way they pound

Inside my poor head?
