Silent Screams
The silence feels our ears like the water fills the ocean.
Our hearts screams out at the tops of it's lungs,
but the sea swallows it up and the screams are drowned out.
Nothing we do makes a difference.
It's as if honeycomb has filled our ears
and as hard as we pull it will never come out.
The sad fact is that our friends and family
bellow at the tops of their voices begging us to hear their pleas
but we ignore them for our own selfish gain.
Now that this is known maybe we can open our ears
to the cries of the world and take enjoyment in listening
instead of speaking and hearing instead of talking.
