I can hear them in the walls

Conversing quietly

I can hear them in the walls

And they can certainly hear me

I can hear them in the walls

It's not safe for them out there

I can hear them in the walls

But no others know they're here

I can hear them in the walls

Our clandestine battle

I can hear them in the walls

Our fight for what is right

I can hear them in the walls

As I'm drifting off to sleep

And I pray they're never found

The Jews that we do keep


The author's comments:

I wanted to capture the feelings that those hiding Jews would have experienced.
