Its been so long. So long since I last let my fingers effortlessly type across the keyboard. So long since I let myself think about the ticking of the clock next to my head. So long since I heard myself breathe. In and out. So long since I heard silence. But is it really silent. The days are long spent thinking mindless things and the nights longer, kept up by the incessant thoughts that plague your mind. Dreams become blurry and the question of reality looms over your head when you wake. Thoughts come easier than desired and action slips further out of grasp. Stress becomes a thing of comfort and the idea of relaxation seems so elusive. Tick tock, tick tock. The hum of the computer and the ticking sound of a second hand calm a restless mind. Words aren’t simply words in a world so loud. It’s been too long. Blinking lights, tired eyes. The hope that tomorrow will be different. The hope that it’ll all slow down. The realization that it never will.
