Left in Thought

As I set here and revel in my thought. I notice how eerily quiet it has become. Then I look over my shoulder and see all around me my peers seem to hold a conversation, but yet I could not hear them. I began to realize that I was deep in thought, Deep enough to where I lost all hearing. As I began to talk I noticed no one was listening so I began to talk louder and louder until I was screaming. But yet no one could hear me. Then a thought occurred.

Am I trapped in silence?

Forever?

Can it be true?

Am I truly trapped, forever screaming in silence?"

It is true. I am stuck in this dark void I call my "Inner thought." Then everything goes dark. Hours go by and nothing happens. I take notice of this small but bright-glowing if you wish to call it- object. The weird thing is it appears to be expanding and contracting like it is being controlled.

I start to call out "what is this? I ask. But no sound comes out. But this Object seems to be comforting so I gave it a name. Lightly, I call it. At the peer thought of this name the object seems to react with glee. Just as I get accustomed to my new friend, he starts getting smaller and dimmer until I am completely alone.

Again I am left alone in this sickening- wait no- Maddening silence. But as I start to lose hope a stranger appears. I start to walk towards this stranger and he began to walk towards me. As we are a few feet away from each other he greets me with a smile.

As soon as I get closer his smile turns into this twisted smile and he pulls out a dagger and in one swift slicing motion he has slit my throat open. I fell on my knees and look up to see the twisted smile on his face get bigger. But then I realize I am finally able to escape from this Silent Hell. And for the first time I smiled and at that it all faded and I was gone.
