Noise (Just a poem I thought I'd share here.)

[shadowknows69]

Mind racing, memory erasing as each new thought arrives.
The noise is pounding and surrounding; Too resounding.

Brain screaming for peace, or even "The Dream Police"
To arrest what's inside my head, and make it quiet instead.

But quiet not all my thoughts; Just enough.
Just the noise of other people's lives. Not mine.

No mind of my own. I adopt those I know. Or don't
Just to read is to live another's need. Their pain. Even their greed.

I dream not to care, not have to share, the pain of all I see.
Why can't my mind filter out the noise? Ignore others, make the pain leave?

Huge hearts and hopless causes. The empath's curse.
I hear all the pain of life. The noise is getting worse.
