Trigger Warning;  The Following poem deals with trauma due to assault.

 

Noises are all around me

I can’t speak.

I try to scream but I can’t.

I wish I could turn the time back.

But the Clock is turning.

The clock is moving

It is working,

I wish I could turn the time back.

The Clock is turning.

The Clock is moving.

Stop! Stop!

The Clock is turning.

The Clock is moving.

 

This poem is for my upcoming book:  Battered mind a Thriller copyright 2021 by Sylvia Stein.
