Breath

Amidst the Chaos

Amidst all the noise,

All the chaos,

All the people,

All the voices,

I am silent.

Screaming to be heard,

With every fiber of my being,

With every look,

Every movement,

But the words never leave my mouth.

I'm here

I scream

See me

I plead

With everything

But my own two lips.

And no one hears.

No one cares.

No one listens.

No one wants to.

Amidst all the noise,

All the chaos,

I am invisible,

I am unseen.

Like I'm not here at all.

Do I exist,

in any of your eyes?

Am I heard,

in any of your ears?

Am I cared for,

by any of your hearts?

I am silent.

I am invisible.

But I am here.

Do you care?

Will you ever?

I'll never know.
