The quietness was deafening

Dead quiet.That's room 31 tonight.The only sound heard is the soft rumble of the AC unit.

My roommates,there are 3 of us,are unusually quiet tonight.They must be asleep.

I know this quietness must be enjoyed and I do.

No loud music on the radio.No moaning and groaning like the Angel of death is visiting room 31.No all night ramblings of the other roommie who is 95 God love him.

The door is closed and the nightly sounds I can't hear.A blessing.

I had already leaned back in my bed thinking I would just try to go to sleep early but the quietness was deafening.

Laying here looking out the window at the black clouds rolling in I knew this was something and had to write about it.

It won't last long I bet !
