Do you not
Every night
hear them
silently crying
a quiet fear
seeping
through your walls
can you no longer
stand to hear
no more
will you
tonight
try to call
what is left
of your courage
no matter the cost
to help
the young souls
who are lost
in a sea of shame
pain
fear and dread
who/'/s silent heart breaking tears
continues to seep
through your wall
before
the silence
before
the coroner calls

I hear them they keep me up at night
as I try to figure out how to help.... |

if you hear,
you are in it
you cannot look
the other way
I say, but it can
be a dilemma
that people do face
from day to day
you walk in the store
no one is there,
you wonder, you ring
the bell, still no one
comes out,
possibly something/'/s
wrong,
do you leave after waiting
a while, or do you investigate?
someone could easily steal
what is in the cash register,
or, perhaps, someone
already did
in a normal day,
your heart pounds
the world is like
that, one can never
rehearse, or, plan
for the unexpected,
the unwanted,
you hear, or you do not
hear what you should
this is a virtue poem
that you wrote drone
well done!
Peace! |
