Stop

By Ashes the Emo Fae

Too many people

Too many voices

Emotions running ramped through my head

Even those not of my own design

Of others and their anxiety, fear, anger, stress, depression

Reflecting off of me

Shut up

Make it all stop

Make it all end

Too much noise

None of it cohesive

Silence isn’t the answer

Leaves room to think

More noise to combat

Need numbness

The one thing I’ve always feared to live again

It’s the only way to make the noises stop…

Make it all end

Make it all stop

Shut up

    Don't let all the angst and gnashing of teeth get you down. You are exactly right about needing to take a breather and live a little. Shutting up now, thanks.
