Can anyone hear me?
it hurts
hurts so bad;
the string of life,
around my neck,
choking me,
can anyone hear me?
my cry
my little whimper of sobs,
can they see?
that i am laughing,
hiding,
crying,
dying,
can anyone hear my voice?
from the heart,
the soft beat
of life;
can they see?
the wave of reality,
taunting me
with its lies;
I am so sad,
so lonely,
so helpless,
so vulnerable,
in this world of knives.
Can't they see?
I am floating in nothing,
in darkness;
Try looking at my face!
full of smiles;
full of pain;
full of anger;
full of holes;
Try hearing my sound!
My echo,
in the background;
My voice,
in this poem;
calling for friendship,
for love,
for help;
It hurts,
hurts so bad;
Can anyone hear me?
hear, my pain. |
