She searches for silence

She searches for silence

She searches for silence but silence cannot be sought..
It has not got a price tag so it can’t be bought..
Serenity is not present in the rolling sea raging like a tempest so angrily..
Nor is it there in the pouring rain when torrential teeming deluges the drain

Tho her heart’s desire amidst the darkness of the night would be a happiness of a hush til the morning light
But her head thinks “Ssshh” betwixt her fight of a ticking tinnitus.. an agonising plight
So she opens a window from within her boudoir and her tinnitus is masked by a revving car

Such a dreadful din in her depths of despair as a driver answers his phone unaware and all of a sudden a deafening sound.. like a bat out of hell he skids from the ground
She stands wantonly by the window that is fully ajar and hears the engine of the racing car
A whistling of the wind is in it’s wake.. is there no peacefulness for pity’s sake ?

Silence can be so hard to find.  Your memories often scream at you and no one else can hear them.  I liked your poem, it touches so many of us.
