All is Silent
by Sheri Altman
Sometimes... so close on the edge almost feeling a hint of touch breaking in breaking down fracturing the foundation Then I remember... safe is boring hurt is chance alone is wiser Quick moments... open seen exposed Retreat... too much revealed must conceal my reflection secret longing Run away... cut fracture forget push off can’t breathe Not wanted... you’re still here in this place my space sanctuary Detached... leave get out go away You do not want me... I am broken damaged flawed so scared so frightened don’t leave I am contradiction
About The Author
Sheri Altman began writing while growing up in the disastrous Foster Care System. Barely ten years since she left that system behind, she continues to write about the pain of the past and how it has affected her as an adult. Sheri’s “raw emotional truth” style is what sets her apart from other writers. “The truth rarely comes in a pretty package. I would be cheating myself and my readers if I wrote to please the masses.
