He always liked the sound of rain.
It drowned out the voices of the ghosts in his house.

2nd place
Being deaf, her world was silent.
She only heard voices when she visited the old cemetery alone.

3rd place
Emma Secor
I walk around the kitchen, tiptoeing so I don’t wake anyone up.
I’m thankful you left your door unlocked; I love watching you sleep.
