silent whispers

erica

Silent whispers...

Every movement that I make.

I can hear the silent sounds.

They echo in my mind.

Millions of tiny voices.

Growing louder by the day.

By the minute.

By the second.

A spoon being laid down.

Or footsteps in the hall.

Will roar in my head.

Louder and louder.

The voices get clearer and more define.

Since when can I hear a silent pen on the paper?

Goose bumps cover me now. 

As I begin to shiver.

Hear the door crack open.

On the other side of the house.

A ruffle of paper landing on the ground.

Water dripping.

Drip, drip.

The computer buzzing in the other room.

Every movement that is made.

A small whisper in a room.

Every movement...

Echo’s in my mind.

Bubbling up ready to burst.

No pill’s can stop the noise.

It echo’s and echo’s louder and louder.

Till I close my eyes and rest for...

Tomorrow I’ll go through the same mess.

 Every sound every movement.

    Wow, an acute sense of hearing....sounds miserable! You depicted it excellently and the accompanying image is so appropriate. Beautiful job, horrible situation.
