Noise

It's all background noise

then why do I hear you from a mile away?

like the voice in my head 

like my morning alarm 

like an image on my wall

oh, why do you torment me?

why do you desire to lay in my bed?

to crawl inside my veins 

to whisper my name

and scream yours

when will you leave?

so i can finally breath
