Answer Me Poem by Sydne Morris

Answer me please
you hear me
Do not pretend otherwise
Come on I need your help

Do not be mad now
this is not the time
I need some guidance
more than anytime before
Come on
Answer me

As I fall into this
deep, black hole
devouring all my problems
And me in one piece
Trying to escape
I call your name
But I don't hear a response

Come on
Answer me
Are you the coward
hiding behind
the soft pillow of denial
Or am I the soldier
daring to march foward
no matter waht life throws at me

Your silence is deafening
But completely expected
Someday when it's too late
maybe a sound will come out
And you'll finally
without hesitation
Answer Me
