Shoes And Dresses
They began by tying me up to the mattress...
I learned to alphabetically name animals in my...
just to pass the time away...
We were all alone,
no mother or father to protect us...
I never saw his face
but I remember his voice...
By reading this poem
you are agreeing to see horrific things...
There was no way out of the blackest of rooms,
where ironically, every single thing inside was...
I gazed outside a fog, flamed window.
There were things within a dark sky...
I hear the voices,
They will forever repeat in my head...
In a place redder
than this, miles radiating...
One in the same you stand together
hearts as cold as leather...
Silence soothes me much like the winter cold
I learned to love numbness as I grew old...
Denuded they stood
huddled outside one last time...
