Invisible

Moving in silence means forgetting what your voice sounds like because you have not spoken aloud in days. It is being attuned to the sound of your own breathing, but flinching when you hear other sounds. It is feeling a crushing weight that slowly begins to press in on you from all sides…Suffocating. It is quietly drowning in your thoughts and watching the world move around you, as you coast through it like a drifting shadow. It is going through your entire day without speaking to another living soul, yet longing to hear your name spoken on the lips of strangers. Moving in silence means feeling invisible.
