Misophonia
Too loud too loud too loud
Click click click click
Tap tap tap tap tap
All I hear are those awful sounds
Muffled talking
Loud screaming
Typing
Chewing
Smacking
Eating
Gross please make it stop
This is real
Not just for me
But everyone else
I can’t stand sounds
The sounds of anything
Except music
Music is the only thing that saves me
Tones and repetitiveness
I can’t do that
But drums
And cellos
Guitars, pianos, saxophones
Those are all okay
I’m sorry
None of this is my fault
I wish it didn’t bother me
Trust me
I do.
But it does.
I hate it
Probably more than you do.
You should be thankful
Because you don’t.
It makes my skin crawl
I get hot
Dizzy
I shake
Every sound gets amplified
Please forgive me
I’m sorry
Damn misophonia!
