See my words sink
Into dark abyss
of endless cheer
at the death
Of another year

Waterfall down
My words drowned
In a sea of noise
but i make heard
All my life round

Oh how i long
For the quite
In a world so loud
Can this sound
dim around

Long forgotten
I resurect words
Creations own aspect
Still white noise
keeps out my voice

Angels appear
Halos slipped
Singing loud
Staccato drips
A wall of crowd.

Now as i slip away
Into another deafened day
I hear my own heart beat
All around loud proud feat

 Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

Excellent close, excellent poem of being drowned in our claustrophobic world! Strong Voice Poet! KUDOS!
