Tinnitus

Lurking in the shadows
In the gaps beyond the stars
Voices shouting louder
Silenced only by my heart

Screaming in the silence 
To engulf my senses full
I long for silent silence
To enact a final cull

Breaking down the volume
Taking down the noise
Breaking down the constant
To a point I hear my voice
