Analysis of The whispering of the trees.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



The whispering of the trees. 

One more night, I tried, but could not go to sleep. All the thoughts flooding into my head are pushing me down and sinking me deep. So I woke up and had to leave. The pain was strong and streaming down my face, so I went to the forest to find a place where I could cry all alone and free the monsters inside my soul. As I sit and close my eyes, I can hear the trees' whispers. Their song drowns out my cries. There's no other place for me to hide, so here I am with no one by my side. But the trees keep me alive.
