Shades of gray

Days on end staring at a blank wall just daring it to break the silence.

Confined to a life of deafining silence because the noise is unbearable.

I find the symphony of my coffee brewing a release from the anxiety I can look forward to on this day.

As I watch the clock continue it's countdown to the grave I have come to embrace the fact that there is a comfort in loneliness.

You are the smartest person in the room if you are the only person in the room.
