Behind These Walls

Published by Family Friend Poems May 2013 with permission of the Author.

They watch the world
with open eyes.
They haunt the world

You'll join this world
one cruel day.
So sad it'll be,
but they can't hear you say...

Behind these walls
lies a deep, dark universe,
one where the light can't shine through!
A world where they lurk
and play and hide.
Behind these walls there's a world inside...
