She used to cut through the noise
Now I struggle with the silence
Everything just drones on and on
Unintelligible background sounds
But when I try to hide away
My mind wanders back to her
And all I hear is the lack of her voice
That laugh that used to give me chills
That used to carry me through
Above the din of ignorance
Now I’m swallowed by the void
The chaos drags me down
And even the moments of respite
Offer nothing but the haunting loss
Reminders of how important she became
And how much I lost in my failure
To keep her in my life
Let the cacophony drag me under
She won’t be there to sunder it
Ever again
