Tssss

tssss

tss…

it’s building up.

It always builds up.

It’s just always there.

Like heat building up from the oven.

Like a valve, a geiser.

It almost feels surreal,

not real

you’re not even there.

But you know where you are,

don’t you? You do.

But

you feel you don’t have a map,

you feel the gps has no signal.

Tssss

tsss

tss…

the valve keeps reminding;

the lack of choices,

the lack of movement

the lack of peace;

Everywhere, everyday

the mind floats nowhere,

trying to look everywhere

for an way out of this shallow grave,

a way out of the sounds

Tssss

tsss

tss..

they are just there

all the time

why?

You think, with your now confused undertones

“I’m just a collection of meat and bones,

why can’t I just convince myself

this is just life and nothing else?

The noise will fade

if you stop listening to the valve so much”

Tssss

tsss

tss..

But it is just so loud

being lost on a suffocating crowd

of no one but multiple yourselfs.

You feel like you’re nobody else.

It’s just you with these sounds

until your mind finally melts.
