Quiet your mind and you may find peace in such stillness. Your life feels like chaos when the music drowns out any possibility of silence inside. How can you even think with lyrics of mesmerizing dandelions clanging through your consciousness? From the left and right distractions dissect your attention. Why is it so hard to turn off the music? Silence is scary— a frightening thing to befriend. Some fear the dark, yet you fear the quiet.

Frightening Friend
Quiet your mind and you may find peace in such stillness. Your life feels like chaos when the music drowns out any possibility of silence inside. How can you even think with lyrics of mesmerizing dandelions clanging through your consciousness? From the left and right distractions dissect your attention. Why is it so hard to turn off the music? Silence is scary— a frightening thing to befriend. Some fear the dark, yet you fear the quiet.
