Looking

A soft sound almost did not reach my ears.

I felted the need to to turn my head around

to search for the sound, but instead I just

moved my eyes at an 180 degree, so if the

sound was human it would not run, if it

was an animal whispering it would not stop

it's melody.

No such luck, I took another few  slow steps

careful as to where I put my feet not wanting

to disturb or crush the fallen leaves and avoiding

the cavernous noise that it would make.

A curious crow would jump between branches

calling its friends but they too seemed silent as

to not make and audible sounds. 

I searched the surroundings to no avail, life was

silent, the air chilled my bones, but still I could 

hear the sound, why do I still hear that piercing

sound, if I block my ears can I erase that sound

or is it me that is troubled by my taughts. 

I direct my eyes to the sky and it was a blinding

sun almost red or was it orange, I stop the 

inquiring and followed a strange light that

kept approaching me and hypnotized my senses

more than I wished for.
