Inspired by Song

As the title says this story has been inspired by songs. Most of them have been found by an absolutely AMAZING talk show on my local rock station. It's called Under The Covers With Ali. Also I just like being able to write a story in which everyone has no names. Yes that is right, this is a dialogue free story. With no names. I learned this in a writing class over the summer. It makes you concentrate on detail. First update soon

 

Part One: Muted

I open my mouth to speak, to cough, to sing and nothing comes out. I look like someone on a TV set when you mute it, my lips move but nothing comes out. It's frustrating. When I wished for a silent world, I didn't imagine this. The Man cut off all sound. I meant just people talking, but I didn't word it right. I spent three weeks studying how to make a wish and this is what happens?!

(continue??)

 

I stop where I am on the silent street and sit on the curb. Sound-free tears drip down my face. Not one car makes a noise, not a bird chirps. It's strange, it's unnatural. It shouldn't be happening.

I stand up on shaky limbs and start walking. Soon I feel pretty steady and I start sprinting. The sound of feet pounding the ground like pistons on a train are no where to be heard.

 

I used to write stuff like this a lot

 

No it's all the same there are three parts. This is part one. And is written from one view. Then Alone is written from another and Blind is from a third

 

Those sounds used to calm me. Make me think straight. The silence is making me mad, I can barely get up in the mornings. I can't whistle or sing in the shower. Well, technically I can but there is not noise.

All I can do is write down things. And hope someone will find it. I stop running when I reach the docks. The water laps on the wood underneath me. I open my mouth and feel myself scream, no sound. But my throat burns when I'm done.

It's official, I need to find The Man and fix this
