SILENT CLOCKS
by The Treehouse Teens

                    Anything that turns the clocks of time
                    and opens the door to a child's mind
                    She stares with no expression on her face
                    Lost in a silent, unknown space
                    As a woman she stands in silence
                    A silence waiting to be broken
                    Memories, light images flashing before her eyes
                    I stand in silence
                    A silence needing to be broken
                    no truth; no virtue
                    A child lost in guilt with no expression
                    She sits quietly
