penetrating the walls, invading my space, 

comes the sound. 

it chases me, finds me, leaves me with no place to hide. 

searching for the source, I face the noise, 

I found it was easier to forget than to hold on, 

a relief to consider myself free. 

I never could’ve realized how suffocating it was to chase thrills, 

the night, smooth as silk, wraps me in a warm embrace 

the heat of the moment takes me by surprise,
