The Hive
When you close your eyes all you can hear is a soft buzz.
You don’t know where it came from, when it started, or why it happens, you just know you can feel it softly and gently trembling right to your core. It isn’t like the sound of any animal or insect you ever heard before, it is distinct and unique on its way.
The gentle melody that made your mind its home soothes you, empties your mind of any worry or stress at mere thought of its elegant music. Most of the time you don’t need to think, for the sweet music is all your mind can listen to, it takes over your body and brain, and it guides you through your days.
You have no more worries, no more stress, for you feel like something greater is taking care of you, guiding you, and the harmony in your mind is proof of it.
You used to be like the others, always worrying, head full of thoughts, no buzzing telling you what to do, when to do, what to think, how to act, you lived a terribly overwhelmed life. You had a job… you think, maybe night classes, you remember there being something distracting you from melody in your mind.
You most definitely had acquitencies, they called themselves your friends, they tried to interfere with the song, attempting to pull you away from it, for you were acting too abnormal for their taste. You were forced to sit in numerous interventions before being able to cut them off, sometimes it is hard to let go of people, even when they are bad for you, but at least you have the music there to comfort you.
You don’t let that upset you anymore, you have better friends now, real ones, ones that understand you, for they also hear the same sweet melody playing over and over again inside their head. It tells them to have the same thoughts as you, the same needs, wants, and ideas, and it makes you so happy, for at once you belong.
When you are near your friends the music plays so loud, so clear, beckons you to stay close, makes you want to be near them. For the emptiness gets even emptier, the blankness in your mind grows even more blank, and your eagerness, your willingness to follow along grows strong with each vibration that comes from everyone of your friends, echoing through you, straight to your core.
It is like bees.
It’s like hundreds of bees have crawled under your skin, and now they control your body. They have their wants, their needs, you are just their home, just the vessel in which they inhabit, maybe that’s why you hear the lovely buzzing.
Or maybe you are the bee…
Just following along whatever instruction your queen gives to you, and the buzzing is not an external sound, it is your sound, your response to show how well you obey what has been commanded to you.
And now you found your hive.
