Noise

sounds behind the window
are in me
hurt
I prefer as before
hidden in silence
and in your arms
drink tea with lemon
listen to Billy Holiday
hug the dog

calm
the world
for me

I cherish the winsome specificity of the three lines at the end of the first stanza. Thanks for posting this good poem!
