underneath her blanket
she could feel her mind wandering around endlessly
she grew more anxious and restless as time went by
and before she knew it she could feel tiny drops of tears on her cheeks
she told herself that she is strong
she reminded herself that this too shall pass
sometimes they overpowered her
sometimes they merely whisper
but they're always there
lurking in the background
and one thing is for sure
they never left
she kept them to herself
she tried to scream
yet her scream only consisted of muffled voices
she could not understand them
so how could others
she just wants the whispers to be gone
