Silence

The silence was deafening; all I could hear was silence. I could see people mouths moving, saw them passing words but not one sound reached my ears. It had all been so sudden, I could hear everything, then nothing. I could tell this was not a matter for the doctors, not anything wrong with my ears. I don’t know how but I could tell, this was something deeper, something to do with thoughts and feelings. Mental not physical, what was happening. All I had said since I have arrived was “hi!” and “hello!” and received the same in reply. Except…

history

slowly, the moon faded as it was swallowed by the clouds. The light in the barred window flared sending speckles of gold onto the ground at the feet of the beast. The mist swirled into the shapes of claws and teeth. The structure leaned slowly in the howling wind and the earth held its breath. The clouds passed with the moment and the spirits were gone and shadows leapt as the moon was reviled. secretive and silent the towers watched, echoing shadows of the past into the quite. The staring walls waited and waited and waited.

Creepy

Creepy. That is the only word that describes the witch. silver flowing hair draped her proud shoulders and in her pale white hand she held an apple that seemed to radiate power. Her mouth was curled in a smile that whispered death without moving and her eyes, on look into those killer slits and you would never forget them, they would haunt you day and night and reflect the deepest darkest shadows of your past. Her flowing dress reached the ground and she seemed to hover like death. What did it remind me of? What was that I could feel?
