Anthem- Epilogue Maggie Bergmann We lay silently in our bed. We look at the blank white walls‚ the sleeping bodies‚ and the darkness. Everywhere. We wonder if this is all there is to life or what is being hidden. Certainly there must be something out there different from here‚ but we are forbidden to think of such things.
