its more than sound for me,
its color too.
too much will blind me,
and burn my eyes.
i loathe large groups,
not because of the people.
but because of the noise
and color
that come with it.
social studies and lunch are the hardest.
so many people talking all at once,
with no way to get away.
its a nightmare.
everything got to be too much today.
i was asked
"am i annoying you"
and i snapped back
"yes."
it was quiet for a couple seconds.
then it was back
to the torture of the noise
and what it does to me.
