That's evocative. What comes to mind immediately is the varied rush of a nearby freeway...or the sound of ocean waves, crashing then sloshing, roaring then still. There's a feeling of interrupted reverie in this poem.
That reminds me of a zebra . I don't know why ? Actually I do exactly. There is Sound and there is Silence. Opposites you would think . But if you where to believe Simon and Garfunkel . Silence has a Sound .
Opposites which are not really opposites but one a condition and the other the lack of it.
Silence is almost as intrusive as sound. Kind of like at night before heading to bed, I shut down my computer and the house is completely silent. During the day that sort of thing is almost welcoming, but at night it's deafening, almost to the point where I can't sleep.
There is a magic in the air that permeates through the very soul of my existence. There is a stillness in the night that floods my senses beyond my imagination. There is a madness inside of me that overflows in everything that I create. There is a past behind me that is overcrowded with memories that drain me out.

To me its the sound of being alone in a crowd....

Ariel - I can picture all of your situations through this poem.
Queen Mo - "sweet and soft to the ear" :-) That is a new description. Will keep it in mind.
Akshay - the Zebra bit was unintentional. I do believe that silence has a sound.
Pincushion - yes, I do feel like that sometimes when I am alone in a crowd.
superMANA! - nice example. yes, silence is as intrusive as sound!
