Heart sounds

matter how hard I tried. I was in a different place, it wasn’t home and I felt my heart start to beat fast, I was getting scared these surroundings weren’t familiar to me and all I wanted to do was go home. I heard a scream, it sounded like a girl and it was getting closer and closer, my hands started to shake and my stomach dropped. I couldn’t think straight, all I could think about is the girl, the sound of how fast my heart was beating and the shakiness of my hands. I don’t even know where I…

the music that they have been putting out. You could anticipate similarities and differences when comparing an album and a concert, but would you really know how much would change or what would sound different in an arena compared to your headphones, I don’t think many could.

the staircase to find her mother impaled on the carpet. The corpse was already greeted by her brother before she got there. They cry out her name, hoping to get a response, but the foyer stayed silent. Shivers were sent down their spines and their hearts pounded quickly. The butler walks into the scene to only find tears gushing down their faces over their beloved parent. He embraced the children like an eagle spreading his wings. Beside the mother’s corpse lay a peculiar book. The book was…

has a sweeping fluctuation to it. The rhythmic quality makes me feel like I should be dancing. I am inclined to move strongly and harshly to match the music. It has almost a primal feel to it.

The helicopter flew into our forests two days ago, chopping the air like a large dragonfly with gauze wings splayed, plastered in metal and broken. We heard it in the dawn and I wiped the dew wet inside my ears so that I could hear it again, chopping the air through our trees. The men jumped up, and so did he, hush-hushing the fear and surprise. I forgot to breathe. We found it today, sunning itself, its shadow short in the high hours of noon, waiting. By the time I got to it, running, yelling,…

referred to as a sonogram; it is a device that uses high frequency sound waves humans cannot hear to create an image of the inside of the body. This is typically used to see the stomach, liver, heart, a child in the womb, tendons, muscles, joints and blood vessels.

word itself, rooted in the Latin word for “pain”, has been manifested in society in numerous way. An example of this occurred in 1964. Songwriting duo Simon and Garfunkel desperately compressed the elements of this strange phenomenon in the song “The Sound of Silence,” which enviably hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1966. Time and time again, poets, musicians, scientists, and dreamers have tried to understand the complexity of what seems to be nothing. Yet despite their efforts, so many…

“I FOUND IT!” Nicole burst into Zach’s apartment, waving a sheet of notebook paper. “Found what?” Zach sat up, his heart swelling at the thought of what she might say next. “The address, Zach, the address, it’s the paper factory!” Nicole shrieked and laughed, almost starting to dance around the room. “Holy- holy cow, Nicole!” Zach laughed. Nicole leapt at him and they grabbed each other into a hug. “Y-you aren’t joking?” “No!” Nicole was overcome with emotion. “We-we found her. We did it.”…

this has never happened to me before. Every one of our friends has moved or just stopped talking to us. This was different. “Let’s get breakfast and coffee at our favourite spot,” I said grabbing my car keys and getting my coat and shoes. “Yeah, that sounds good. Mrs Maklar!” Arabella said “Yes, honey!” My mom yelled back “Mia and I are going to Super Deluxe!” Arabella yelled back and got her shoes and coat on. “Okay see you guys later!” My mom yelled back and continued to make preparation for…
