The Sound of Cognitive Dissonance

sounds like

buzzing

scraping

whirring

whining

crying

screaming

all the sounds your emotions want to make

when your head is telling you something untrue

about yourself

about life

about your life

and you are trying so hard not to hear it

but the sound is killing me

and I want to ask

“when was the last time your feelings really mattered?”

“did they ever?”

how long have you not been hearing the sound?

  1. Awesome! So many people have gone far too long without that sound inside them. Some of think we're good at hearing it, and then we turn the corner and the buzzing fills our ears. Many thanks.
