Silence

It has been some time since I last experienced this deafening silence that wraps around me.
Sounds that are normally heard suddenly become overwhelmingly loud noises when it breaks the silence.
Things seem further than where they really are and things become smaller and bigger than they seem.
The beat of my heart is felt pulsating behind my eyes and my head feels dizzy with all this noise.
But what is worse than the noise is the concrete silence that follows, so loud it clouds my thinking.
It thumps against my head and the voice inside seems so loud, desperate to quell this intimate torture.

This is the stuff of nightmares.
Always. Always.
