Come out, come out, wherever you are <br />are you clever and shout happy drinks in the bar? <br />I've been looking for you in the closet ten times <br />even sang all our songs and those nursery rhymes, <br />no avail you have left, and my heart is aflutter, <br />I'm reduced to be swept like old leaves down the gutter. <br />Here I go, as the force sucks my soul down the drain <br />and I wave all my limbs but it's all been in vain. <br />Off I go, holding tight to the Devil's own wings, <br />to a faraway place where no nightingale sings. <br />I shall stay there and pray, though it breaks all the rules, <br />as I hope you will join me and the rest of the fools.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/silence-in-the-closet/
