Our government spies on its own citizens like they all are a bunch of enraged partisans. Spy Cameras hidden on every street, in offices, bathrooms, every other corner.
Is there a vast citizen conspiracy that I'm missing? More and more rights granted under the Constitution being stripped away, under the pretense of National Security.
Why?
If only they knew how loud my thoughts were; how I can barely fall asleep at night because my mind is racing at a mile a minute.
See, that's the thing about not being able to talk and not being able to relieve some of the communicative pressure building inside of your head. It piles up after a while, and all of those unspoken thoughts fester until they explode in a different way.
Headaches render me to my bed all day and my hand cramps from trying to write down what I'm thinking so people don't get bored and leave before I can form a sentence.
But for all of the difficulties, I may face in my silent days, it doesn't affect my story or me.
