Poem: As the Years Go By

Silent screams
as daggers of ice
plunge into her body
paralyze
her vocal chords
into submission
until no one realizes
she is dying
inside.


A fog
of forgetfulness
rolls into her mind
clouding
every part of her brain
into silence
until no one realizes
she is no longer
herself.
