What is this silence that seems to remain in place? The only thing I hear is the ringing of white noise surrounding me. Its the only thing keeping me sane. Slowly it fades away leaving complete emptiness. I close my eyes and focus on my own sounds. Breathing, Heartbeat; To keep myself in check. None of it seems to really matter anymore though. The one thing that used to keep the silence away has faded into nothingness. Leaving me with only myself to use as a weapon against it. I must remain strong. I must remain loud. I must remain.

Silence/Sound
What is this silence that seems to remain in place? The only thing I hear is the ringing of white noise surrounding me. Its the only thing keeping me sane. Slowly it fades away leaving complete emptiness. I close my eyes and focus on my own sounds. Breathing, Heartbeat; To keep myself in check. None of it seems to really matter anymore though.

Another sleepless night. Words just seemed to come to mind so sorry if its a bit scattered or makes little to no sense.
