Cliffs

By Julie Curran
Main Street Middle School, Grade 7

Facing the past
Never see the light
Tremble in the darkness
Of an everlasting night.

Slowly moving forward
But never turning 'round
Until you back up
Into what was never found.

As you fall you hear
All the voices you ignored
Telling you what would happen-
But now it's just a blur.

Hitting ground so hard
Will soon make you see
What happens
When you replace the hole where hope should be.
