“I'm standing on the last road for today, its like this for every day.” - Woozi « Simple »
The deafening sound of silence reached Joshua the minute his eyes opened. He hated it. Silence was the worst company to have as a companion. Especially for the last 3 years. In the middle of the night where not a single star shone, he desperately tapped to his right where his phone was. When he finally found it, he turned on his screen, fumbled around in bed, and bent down the side to pick up his ear piece that had fallen onto the floor. Not caring which song was playing, he plucked the earbuds in and let the song flow through his body. Swiping across the screen, Joshua absent-mindedly tapped the random button and placed the phone back on his bed side table.As he slipped back under his covers, the soft lyrics keeping him company, Joshua desperately wished to not cry again before he closed his eyes, begging for at least a few more hours of sleep, unplagued by nightmares.
