Dark Sounds

The loudest sound,
You'll never hear,
Is a silence,
Of the world around,
For that is when,
Your mind takes journeys,
Places you don't want to go,
Things you don't want to see,
All played in your head,
Like an old cd Stuck on repeat,
You will visit the past,
Every trip and every fall,
All your fears and worries,
You'll hear them,
In the darkness,
Cackling like a witch,
Waiting for you to lower guards,
Then pouncing you,
Like a tiger to prey.

But fear them not,
For they are but thoughts,
Find strength inside survival,
You made it through,
Lived to tell the tale,
So don't let the ghosts,
Ruin today or tomorrow,
Banish them from mind,
Soon you will find,
The world around,
Is not so quiet after all.
