I was Quiet

I Remember

by Karen Cherry

I remember:

When they came to take Uncle Walter away no one said anything.

When they heard him yelling over and over "I didn't do it", no one said anything.

When they strapped him down and filled him full of drugs no one said anything.

When he had a heart attack , and died in the mental ward, no one said anything.

When another young boy turned up dead no one said anything.
