the sound of prey

Today I gave a presentation and the room was so quit while i was speaking. i could hear my voice reverberate off the walls. the silence of the room paired a cloaking darkness created this covert moment. and the silence on that filled the room was eerily beautiful because the room was filled with people. This is the first time I felt alone in a room and felt fine. or maybe it was a feel of distance, a distance not determined by a physical space but rather by mental space. i felt like I was so disconnected from everyone around me so I felt more connected to mental and physical self. I was surrounded like prey but I was not  overcome and eaten.
