Murky Darkness

Yelling.
Screaming.
Crying fills every inch of the air.
With my ears ringing, I stumble my way through darkness.
There is nothing here.
Nothing but a black and heavy darkness that makes it hard to breath.
There is no destination in mind.
Finding a place to set my feet has become the aim.
I continually tell myself that I must not fall.
I teeter a little, but figure it's normal.
Pressing my way through I begin to tire of this game.
Loneliness surrounds me.
Boredom presses on my brain.
Happiness was lost miles behind.
But suddenly my ears catch a taste of something sweet.
Among the weeping,
Despite the yells of a thousand partiers,
there is a song of peace.
It is so faint that I must strain my senses to their limits.
But it's there.
I wonder how I can find it among the confusion of this crazy life.
Now I am searching.
Desperately searching.
Hoping that in the song I will find the light.
