A poem by me.

Silence in the world

Silence

It is everywhere

Even where you don’t expect it

Silence

Poverty

Child abuse

The homeless

Silence

Nobody hears it

But so many have it

Silence

The trees of the Amazon

Being cut down

And they can’t do anything about it

Silence

The ugly

depressing truth

Silence

Not everyone acknowledges it

For it is another unwanted burden

Upon our lightly weighed backs

Silence

Although we do not see it

It does not mean it’s not there

Silence

A unbreakable wall for some

A mass of unmovable substance

It blinds us

Silence

We do not think

Of the whispers of silence

The pressing need

Just to survive

Silence

Some may venture in

But find nothing

Nothing but more silence

For we are sometimes deafened

By the evil, encroaching force

Of others

Who have been given

To much power

Silence

Given to us

by power
