On Deaf Ears

Bustling
Rushing
Talking

Ignoring noises
Irks me to the core
Especially with people
Hardly know

Having to deal with
Same old questions
Same old reactions
Same old nonsense

Do not wanna deal with them
Nothing to say
No connection
Just small talks
Gossips to fulfill their lives

Maybe for entertainment
Narcissistic pleasure
Favourite pastime

Closing my eyes
Covering my ears
Muting my senses

Wanting to run
Using time 
Something that gets me forward

Comfortable with people
Who cares and listen
Unlimited stupid jokes
Being ourselves

I like the sound of that
