Scribble scribble

Rip rip

The sound of creativity

Taking off in many directions

As indecisive as emotions


Zoom zoom

Zip zip

The sound of thoughts racing

Over a thousand miles an hour

Not even stopping to smell the flowers


Boom boom

Screech screech

The sound of the mechanics

In the brain starting to slow

The thoughts don't know where to go


Giggle giggle

Squeal squeal

The sound of love

Overcoming a young heart

Lovely girl shot by Cupid's dart


Sniffle sniffle

Drip drip

The sound of sadness

As her mind thinks hope is lost

Wanting it to end, no matter the cost


Stomp stomp

Slam slam

The sound of rage clouding judgement

It's not her fault, it isn't fair

They don't believe her, they don't care


The sounds in the mind vary

But they all exist in harmony
