That's all I hear, as time drifts on.
Usually I'm surrounded by silence, or the shrill chirping of the birds outside my room, but today somebody has decided to rock.
back-and-forth, back-and-forth, back-and-forth.
I can't focus, there are too many thoughts, clouding the depths of my mind. The creaking, why must they rock, it hurts me, like a knife, sliding into my temples.
bit-by-bit, bit-by-bit, bit-by-bit.
Oh.
It's stopped.
Now I can think, now I can create, now I understand my surroundings. It must be silent, not even the sound of my breath should be heard.
I hold it in so that I can hear nothing but blank silence.
Silence, silence, silence.
I can only keep it here for a little while, because I am a worthless human that needs air. But once I breathe, the creaking returns. But as I look around all in see is
white-and-black, white-and-black, white-and-black.
I hold it in again, but the colors don't change, it doesn't get lighter, or darker, just the same.
I've ruined my chances of understanding, holding my breath no longer works. Only
white-and-black, white-and-black, white-and-black
