The hum grows

 

It’s been too quiet

but now the hum is back.

Louder than ever

an aural attack.

It's crushing and pounding

every inch of my head.

The piercing screeches

of the restless undead.

 

It's been too quiet.

I should have known.

The peace was just a smokescreen

and now it's cover has been blown.

It's out in full force.

The noise. An unearthly voice.

Like violence

in auditory form.

Smashing through the silence.

Breaching the calm.

 

It was too quiet.

I got complacent.

Now my ears are bleeding

as is my nasal.

I feel it crushing 

the insides of my head,

squeezing and squashing,

it wants me dead.

 

The hum has grown, 

all I hear is its frightful moan, 

the gut-wrenching tone

that makes you feel you are never alone.

It wants to force

all good from inside.

Drown it out with

its insidious grind.

I can't let it win,

this monstrous din,

I drown it out with sounds,

music that pushes it shaking 

to the ground.
