This poem is by Jennifer


Silenced

This knife in my heart, remove of it now
You've played your last scene
Go ahead, take a bow
You were good with your words
So kind and so sweet
Swallowing me whole
Your bitter piece of meat
Your touch, I was blind
So unable to see
Allowed all your lies
Though each stung like a bee
But now who is strong
Who has learned from their fall
Who has seen the depths of hell
Who has faced the dark hall
Not you my dear boy
To me you are weak
Never again to use this stage
Never again to speak.
