Silence by slap
The poem is about a little boy who is slapped by his teacher for talking and decided to remain quiet forever as he is very sensitive.

On him a teacher of his
has breathed out some fire
Leading to the little boy's
end of all desire

An incident common to all
has caused him such a freak
that the little boy has now
lost the will to speak

As decided not to open
his little mouth again
In dark cold nights of winter
He remembers his great pain

The one who read literature
not long before yesterday
now just wants to listen
doesnt,t want to say

Days passed by and he has
forgotten to read and write
He,s stuck in a real situation
but alas he can't fight

I think about that boy
every single day
In hope the day will come
The day he would finally say.
