All I want is to be heard,
Just once, and be heard well.
Instead I have to scream and shout,
Instead of talk, I yell.
I have to screech to speak above,
The clamour haunts my head,
No one listens, I sink back,
And all I see is red.
What's the point in speaking out,
When speaking won't be heard?
I won't be listened to, I think,
Can't seem to get a word.
How's this ever going to work?
If no one ever hears?
And so I sink into the black,
Alone save for my fears.
