Chasing silence

.

..

…

….

Chasing silence, running down peace of mind

Anything to get another fix of normality

Trying to satisfy the hunger in my soul

Ignore the demons scratching,

Push through the clouded doubt

Echos of my angry past ringing in my ears

Taring at my soul.

I’ve looked up from rock bottom, through eyes of regret.

Chasing silence, running down peace of mind.

.

I clawed my way back to life

Don’t know when I reached here

I take a look around, standing on solid ground

Put down the weapons of self hate

I’ve reached the end of every battle-

Often bruised yet never broken

Fought my way from misery

Learning along the way, giving myself the tools to succeed

Chasing silence, running down peace of mind

.

The deafening silence

The tranquility of peace

Surcome to the inevitable

Fall from grace, land amongst rubble

Rock-bottom and regret

To only

Chase the sound of silence

And to run down my peace of mind
