  Noise.
      Noise.
Filled every crevice of my mind.
Overtaking my senses.
     Suffocating my ears.
         Running around my head.
             Crawling through my body.
                  Forgetting a thing called
"Silence"
When I was calm
         Collected
             Cared for.

Being able to hear myself
For a little while.
Then they come back.

That white noise called memories.
Overtaking my soul.
    Suffocating my heart.
           Running around my emotions.
               Crawling through my thoughts.

Then I remembered-
You've survived tougher things
And tougher times.
A constant reminder
Seared into the back of my mind,

So that's why I became a mime.
