I was running down the street when it started to rain
So I took out my hearing aids.
The world quieted around me.
I kept on
running,
each foot fall
thudding through my body.
The wind
collided with my earlobes.
The sensation was
Odd
Something that I am not used to.
At last
I
got back to where I started and
put my hearing aids back in.
Sound came rushing back,
Filling my ears.
Normal.
At last.
I reach my limit from time to time.
whether it be at school or at home.
I reach the limit of what my brain can handle.
All of the noise of life becomes too much and I need to take a break.
I need to turn my ears off.
I am a thinker.
I think about big problems in the world and how to fix them.
Like climate change, evolution, the state of humanity as of now.
I write stuff down, half-finished thoughts scribbled, or typed on the page.
I am 15, that's young.
I have just started high school and am experiencing a lot of firsts right now.
Yet at the same time some days feel weird.

It's always enlightening to read from the perspective of someone who lives a different life than I do, with different challenges, so thank you for that.
