In the crowd

Finding quiet in chaos

The only place I can think is in a crowded bar

A quiet amongst the chaos

Too many thoughts running at once

Alone they are screaming

Each one louder than the next

The energy of the crowd quiets the noise inside my head

Absorbing the troubles of those around me allows me to calm the anxiety within

The inner enemy inside my head lays down its weapons and calls a truce

It is listening

Listening to the soul of others

It is realizing things aren’t as bad as they seem

Realizing that each step although difficult will all come together in the end
