Silence Please!
By: April Terry
Silence please,
Can you hear that?
Of course you can’t.
You never could hear me!
I scream all day!
And all night!
Hoping and praying,
This time you just may.
Deep inside,
It’s killing me.
Do you like what you see?
With each passing moment,
I slowly wither away.
Am I invisible?
Do I even exists?
Was I even really real?
Maybe someone dreamt me up.
Could I be ones fantasy?
I try so hard,
But get no where.
Stuck in this landslide,
Only way is down.
Silence please,
Can you hear me yet?
I’m here,
Please will you listen?
I lay at your feet,
Reaching up for your hand?
But you never look down,
You don’t know I’m here.
Clawing at you,
Screaming as loud as I can.
You never even flinch.
What’s the point?
Was there ever one?
Looking at my hand,
I notice I can see throw it.
Is the master of this dream waking?
Soon will I be,
Gone forever?
Without an ounce,
Of notice from you.
You where always to busy,
And now I’m gone.
Silence please,
That’s all that’s left.
And in my place,
A pile of ash.
Till the wind came along,
And blow it away.
No sigh of me,
Near or far,
But I was once told,
On a cold silent night.
If one really tries to listen,
They will hear my faint screams.
The scream I made just for you.
While hoping and praying,
You may hear.
Even a flick of your lash,
Would have been nice.
Now I’m gone,
And it’s your entire fault.
I tried so hard,
But none of it matter.
You always were,
Lost in your own little world.

Could it be that I can tap into what another is feeling?
These feeling in here are not of my own!
