2nd place in the contest
With fluttering ears a sound that no one else hears - the feeling is stuck It might have been the wind a pain and sadness that mocks us all the voice was speaking to me from within As the branches of the trees sway, a voltage by electrical reverberation The sound disturbed the animal's hearing shadows of eyes, teeth and claws my foolish straining of sensitive senses Yesterday's vision climb back to its destiny - haunting, empty pain The connections between the present and the past Characterized by a larger objective, the gods might have for them Ancestral heritage that remains rooted in memories Could that be you I'm hearing? The bells of the past ring the echo of solitude unjust is the last word of the sentence - no life goes in silence Walking past the moon, will listen to the dawn Blindness in the dark echo sound in the ears - have listened and sung
