Time seems to evade him. No matter how much he tries to slow down, Time runs.
It doesn't help that his brain is Lost. He sees small details and avoids making Memories.
Its easier to Forget.
Music became his best friend. In the small moments where he enjoys Existence, he sits in Silence.
He's slowed his body in hope that Time will understand what he's trying to say. But Time does not stop for those who are mentally ill.
He feels Trapped most days. Like the personal bubble that we made as kids is Suffocating him. It presses at his sides, holds him tighter than anything really should.
Days go by too fast. Yesterday was last week and next month is today. He's Lost in the days, weeks, months.
He falls. He lands. And this is the first time in his life he wished Time would go faster.
Time slowed. He could feel his brain losing its fight with the darkness. After a while it took over.
Until,
Time.Finally.
Stopped.
