Why Cacophony

What's in this noise

In the midst of quiet, I seek sweet serenity,

But where's cacophony, its claws ensnaring me.

A discordant symphony, a dissonance untamed,

In the chaos of noise, my peace remains unnamed.

Each jarring note, a dagger to my soul,

Where's the harmony that makes me whole?

I long for stillness, a tranquil reprieve,

But cacophony persists, I can hardly believe.

In the bustling city streets, and crowded spaces,

Cacophonous echoes in a never-ending chase,

I yearn for solitude, for a moment's grace,

To find inner calm in this clamorous place.

Yet amidst the chaos, a melody can be found,

If I listen closely, to the world's diverse sound.

For in the midst of cacophony's disarray,

A symphony of life emerges, bright as day.

So, I'll embrace the chaos, and let it be,

For within its cacophony, I find my glee.

In this tapestry of noise, I'll learn to thrive,

And find harmony in the cacophony of life.
