The cacophony is endless
Marring all throughout my senses
A thousand voices at the walls of my mind
Their nails like static upon my conscience
Claws reaching through the folds
In futility I hold
With nowhere left to hide
Imprisoned by my weakness
Set upon from all sides
The noise, it never ceases

Screeching, wailing
The cacophony is jailing
I have no room left to squirm
No more sides left to turn
Down come crashing the stone
With which I built these spires
Their once golden sheen
Has tarnished by their fires
Now they've broken in, they surely won't let go
The mental tempest choirs

The noise, it crawls beneath my skin
Ripping every thought out from my marrow
Harrowed, their cacophonic arrows
The only escape, ever closing narrow
They encircle my reprieve
This sacred thing of mine
Taking hammers, forming cracks
Shattered to the point I lack
A will to endure the menace
The cacophony is endless
When you can't find the peace to get through your own thoughts. Voices on the outside, on the inside; the cacophony never stops.

This is quite a relatable, but as always very well written. Going to see if I can put it in the Darkened mind community group:P
