Waiting Within the Walls

by Imperfect Perfections   Dec 8, 2009


It doesn't make sense anymore.
all lies and broken promises
with empty words of perfect nothings.
within the clamour of the falling house
is the screaming whisper
of a fearful child
whimpering in the night,
now only wishing to be invisible.
it's inhumane acts of selfishness,
undignified crimes,
prove it's unworthy existence.
rebuild and restart: a simple solution.
it reconstructs the walls
and plasters up that smile,
waiting for a scene change
to relieve the concealed child.
