Suffering Inside Myself

Rain falling, pounding on the roof Trapping me indoors Blotting out the sun Parroting my mood perfectly I play music but no song is loud enough To distract from the thoughts in my head, I can still hear my inner voice Speaking the truths I try to hide from The music can’t end the torment I’m putting myself through Sometimes the lyrics only highlight memories I try not to revisit What used to be a sojourn from my life, an escape, is fueling my pain
