Painkilling: Desire

Tinnitus.
All there is is white noise.

But what I see is different..
I see billions of tiles arranged into a circular pattern around me in thousands of different colors.
My eyes fill with what's in front of me.

The tinnitus worsens.
I feel dizzy.
I fall from the sky, the tiles opening for me as I flail and free-fall through void.
The billions of tiles at the bottom unchain and take the shape of walls at both sides.

I can't stop falling..
I can't stop falling..
The walls move in on me.
I start hyperventilating.
They come closer and closer.
As I am crushed, a beat of silence.
In vision, a beat of nothingness.

4 hours pass before I can finally see something.
But..
What felt like hours went by like years.
As if years had actually passed.

Around me were brown and white trees without leaves.
