Too loud

My world is too loud and too bright and sometimes I crave the darkness of silence.

The world is sometimes too loud.

Clicking,
ticking,
how

I’d love the worlds silence now…

Author's Note

I just realized after submitting this that it’s not the proper haiku format. I am so so sorry I just like the wording too much to change it right now

doesn't need to be...it's its own form...
clicking and ticking.
and I agree, as Hamlet professed as he expired...

"the rest is silence"---
I think this past year and a half with the pandemic and isolation...the quiet has been much too loud.

I so identify with this poem right now. There is construction going on across the street from early morning before night. It's driving me crazy. I so want that silence you speak of in this poem. Thank you for sharing your art.

I’m so flattered I’m more than happy to oblige
