Calmness

Cool smooth words,
Echoing, repeating.
My resistance blurs,
Triumphing, defeating.
Low, deep hums,
Rhythmically beating.
My heart in my chest,
Fading and fleeting…
Puffed up from pride,
Solemnly cheating.
Tears always hide,
Impressing, so meeting.
Discretely, indifferently,
Intently heating.
Wordless arguments,
Endlessly conceiting.
Low, mellow sounds,
Mindlessly deleting.
Sympathy and arrogance,
Apathetically treating.

My dissonance,
Your disregard.
My absences,
Have made this hard.
Broken promises,
Left us scarred.
But too afraid to admit,
Our minds were jarred.

Impatient.
Arrogance.
Leave it be.
At a glance.
In it’s place…
In a trance.

Freedom,
By the quiet sound.
Dark shadows hover,
Pressed against the ground.
