Analysis of Noise of the heart



The deafening noise conquers all,
The voices come to a halt,
My eyes open extremely wide,
Where O where can I hide,
My mouth is shut, the path is blocked,
Why is the noise so loud and rough?
Why am I still?
Why are my knees on the floor?
My heart beats loud as I think,
Will this nightmare ever be extinct?
My heads throbs from left to right,
Who will win this fight?
My mind says no, my heart says yes,
In the end who will pass the test,
The heart conquers all, the noise stops,
The path is open, my eyes blink slowly,
My mouth is gaping; my feet are no longer low,
My heart beats softer, my conscious is gained,
I take a breath as she passes,
I'm no longer insane.
