Margot's poem
December 29, 2013
Close your eyes
Close them tight
To try to hold back the tears
Pound the doors
Scream until you’re hoarse
But there’s no one there to hear
Listen once more
To the children’s laughs
Like an echo within your head
Find that your dreams
Relived again and again
Are now forever dead
Search for a memory
The smallest thought
To occupy your mind
And yet, the sound
Of monotone silence
Is all you can find
Bang the door
Yell as loud as you can
Try to escape in vain
Yet by the time you get out
All that will be waiting
Is rain
