Day 5

Did Anyone Hear It




When the fissure emerged

I swear it made an audible sound

Or was that just in my head?

Was it as silent as my cries?



Ever feel something and think you heard it?

Like when the thunder shakes your house

And you don’t know if it was the walls or nature.

Is that just me…or do you hear it too?



What about the tree that falls when no one is around?

Is it less than the others because no one stood witness?

Natural things occur just as loudly

When no one else can experience it.



Even if it didn’t make a sound,

I felt it through and through;

No one is knocking at the door,

So I guess it really was silent.
