POEM STARTER

Inspired by Hollow Oaks

Can You Hear Me?

Write a poem that could have this as the title.

Can You Hear Me?

I’m trapped, encircled by walls

Walls that I built to keep the world out

Out of my hair, so I’m away from danger

Danger both physical and mental

Mental like my words that no one can hear

Hear me please, I’m trying my best

Best isn’t good enough, I’m not enough

Enough for this world of perfection

Perfection that is flawed, blinded by outward beauty

Beauty I don’t have, I am nothing

Nothing to anyone, no one cares

Cares aren’t a luxury I have, try to think

Think about one question, can anyone hear me?

Me pleading for help, is anyone there?

There to get me out
