You ever just sit in your quiet place and realize that it's not so quiet anymore?

Listening to the silence, it's so loud that it's almost deafening.

You ever realize that your "quiet place" just isn't the same anymore.

It's been tainted.

It use to be the place you go to find sanctuary.

The place you would go to find your peace but now not even that place is satisfactory anymore.

Feelings of sorrow and despair riddle your mind.

You've sunken into a place farther than the quiet place...

It's no longer safe there.

Alone in an ocean of thoughts you swim for dear life to find a new quiet place...

But all that's left is you watching yourself sink deeper and deeper...
