A single crystallised feather soared over my head amidst the aroma of spring, my legs caressing the grass as I walked into the wilderness. Was this a saunter which had been embraced by the kisses of heated rain? No, this journey had no destination. All I knew is that I could not go back, not to that ghastly building in which screaming occurred all so naturally.
At what point can someone demand to be heard, when all others hear is a static of white noise that absorbs no vocabulary? This grass propels a warm hug in comparison to where I have come from; I refuse to have high hopes for whatever may be on the other side of that wall of intimidation.
To speak is both a blessing and a curse, much like human life.
