The Sounds Of Silence

I’ve never been comfortable with silence Maybe cause I’ve always lived in a kid filled house Constant feet toddling, voices of different pitches exclaiming Even when it’s silent my brain Prattles on Maybe it’s my adhd even from when I was little my brain moved faster than everything else Call me scatterbrained I guess Social situations are not my strong suit I prefer to hangout alone playing music or the tv creating background noise for me What most people crave is peace and quiet finding comfort in its presence I for one avoid it when I can Nothing is louder than when my brain melts down, overreacting the voices persistent and rapid The same thing is constantly said though, when at the edge, take deep breath’s Deeep breaths…. Deep breaths I close my eyes, play my music and begin to breathe Push the thoughts out they have no place here For Deep breaths take up far more space than silence….
