Should I Listen?

Should I Listen?

When I shut off all sounds

      And there is nothing

Left to drown

      Out the nothing,

I can hear something.

I can’t help but wonder

      If the something

Is just more thunder

      I have to get past

To hear something else. . .

                        Something more?

Did my heart just shake,

      Or was what I felt

Only an earthquake,

      And not silent nor still

Enough to be true?

I breathe, taking it in,

      Letting it out,

We’re suppose to relax

      And let go.

Something says, “Get Up.”

Should I listen

      Or stay here and wait

Until I hear more?
