Loud, Suffocating Silence - A Prisoner of My Mind

All is quiet--

no, there is no sound--

but my mind is ever active

going so fast I cannot register my thoughts.

I am so restless

and yet I have no energy--

my body can't move.

There is so much I must do,

so many obligations to fulfill

yet I cannot focus.

Nothing satisfies

lest I stare at the ceiling all night--

that is all I can do.

All I hear is static, the undecipherable static of my thoughts--

my ears ring from the deafening silence--

make it stop!

Why?

Why must you do this to me?

What do you gain from this?

That sick bastard--

the goddamn puppeteer--

is this what you want?

My body is paralyzed because of you

and my mind is running at lightspeed--

almost like I'm drunk--

except I'm completely sober.

Someone save me from this prison of silence.
