Silence
by Antje Bothin
Talkative at home, happy and loud
But quiet and withdrawn in a crowd
Silent at school and in the shop
Does this selective mutism ever stop?
It is not a choice
This hiding of the voice
When people are around
There is no sound.
Like a sudden freeze
Being in a tight squeeze
Unable to talk
Nowhere...
