HyperacusisA Poem by Dominik D. RitesSomething was bothering me today..... How bothersome, Lonesome, Fearful Yet calm. How strange, Yet loud, And annoying. Recoiling, Like an uncontrollable bomb. I clutch my head, but the pain instead, suddenly began to soar. The warm and wet, Dripping, yet I fret, As the noises began to roar. Cough, cough, sniff, shift. I struggle to stand upright. Ahem, ahem, thud, ring. It ached but I held on tight. I stumble along, my legs shaking, as I clutch the bathroom door. Rip, rip, pop, slap. The cold and wet tile stained with gore. I stand up straight. The relief feels great, as I stride back with my head held high. The fearful faces, in all directions and places, as the sounds learned to die. I kick my feet up, My smile wide, as I listen to the silenced noises. Silence, silence, silence, silence, It's quiet, but I soon heard the voices. "He's dead" Said the voices in my head.
