Running without ears

I was running down the street when it started to rain 

So I took out my hearing aids. 

The world quieted around me. 

I kept on 

running,  

each foot fall 

thudding through my body. 

The wind 

collided with my earlobes.

The sensation was 

Odd

Something that I am not used to.

At last 

got back to where I started and

put my hearing aids back in.

Sound came rushing back,

Filling my ears.

Normal.

At last.

  • Summer

    The cool air on my face.

    The sun blazing overhead.

    Running through the neighborhood with friends.

    With no fears of school bothering your mind.

  • What did I do?

    I have been feeling like I am even more different then normal because of my math teacher that I have. When I ask for something that I need to do well in school even though we are done with class and are waiting for the next class to be ready.
