the hallways far too loud. millions of words flowing out of ever chattering mouth that won't close just for a moment. thousands of conversations all happening at the same time. hundreds of voices that scream through megaphones straight into my ears. they talk and laugh and talk and laugh. they yell and scream and yell and scream. the sounds braided me, jabbing at my head and rattling my brain. the lights far too bright. like dentist lights shining into my eyes. like I'm being watched under those blinding florescent lights. those lights like looking at the sun, stabbing my eyes, ripping off my eyelids. forcing me to notice them as they claw for my irises. the hallways far too crowded. the walls falling together with me inside. full of running children who shove each other around. children who touch and bump me. children who suffocate and trap me. and I'm stuck in the wave of those squeezing hallway walls. the air crushed out of my lungs. hands desperately shaking and choking the books they hold. all to much. too too much. I hate those hallways. no matter the time of day. no matter the circumstances. no matter the condition. the hallways are far to much. far far too much
