Stars, it's so loud

should I whisper or scream?

Should I pound or knock?

If I speak up will I only make it louder,

or will I therefore quiet everything else?

I have all these small questions

all a piece in your puzzle

my life

their game.

What exactly is this?

Stars, it's so loud.

Did I break the glass?

Maybe I'll put on my headphones and drown it out

does that make me like everybody else or does that just mean I love my music?

Either way I'm the black sheep

Isn't that what I asked for?

Stars, it's so loud.

Can we please turn it down?

Or did I break that option too?

Maybe I'll find a quiet corner to get distracted in

will my people be there to quiet the noise

or will the others arise and make it harder to think

harder to hear

to see

to breathe

I'm going under

it's so quiet here

but I fight to get back

only to find that

stars, it's so loud.
