What do you hear
When I scream out loud
Do you hear my anguished pleas
No sound comes out
I can’t get it out
Ignorance deceives
I scream your name
You can’t hear a thing
Cries for help, inane
Words cut deep
Slaughter the sheep
Lashings: bloody, profane
Another hollow, desperate sound
You… simply ignore
Alone in my shame
Riling in pain
No one was there before
I scream your name
You can’t hear a thing
Lashings: bloody, profane
Shadows and spades
Lost in the fray
I have nothing to say, anyway
