Poetry

No One Can Hear me

I yell 

I scream

for people to hear me

yet-

no one can hear me

no matter how much I yell

even if I yell

till my throat swells 

no one will hear me

I feel so alone

and small

in a world

known

for being large

where my voice

is not loud enough

to be heard

from afar

blurred out

to the edges of society

as I scream

and scream

and scream

I lie down

after years

and years

and stop

my own heart
