Searching the Streets

Everything we need is already inside us

Monsters clawing
Skin crawling, let me out
I bury, deep down
The pain, the sadness

Another mountain to climb
Another item on the list
Checked off so I can
Feel good for a moment

Running by empty buildings
I crave silence and solace
My thoughts say otherwise
As sirens join the symphony

Will I ever feel okay
For more than an hour?
Will I ever stop searching
For what I already have?
