We Are One
Alexandra Cazin Feb 2016
We sit in a room motionless and silent
Our neighbor lays in their room motionless and silent
Our town lays in silence
Our state is completely silent
Our country is dark
Our world spins slowly in silence
We help our world be silent
We are one of many
We are part of a greater good
We are one
Alexandra Cazin Jan 2016
I sit behind a computer screen waiting for a reply
-When will it come-
I sit behind a computer screen typing to the unknown
-Will he answer me-
I sit behind a computer screen watching words appear
-Why is he saying this-
I sit behind a computer screen crying as the screen goes black
-Why me-

I sit behind a phone screen waiting for a reply
-Pick up please-
I sit behind a phone screen typing into the unknown
-Where are you-
I sit behind a phone screen watching words appear
-Why is she talking like this-
I sit behind a phone screen crying as the screen goes black
-Why did she not listen to me-

I lay under the clouds as it whispers to me
-They don't understand-
I lay under the clouds as whispers turn to talking
-They don't love you-
I lay under the clouds as talking turns to screams
-They want you dead-
I lay under the clouds as the silence takes me over
-You know what to do-

I sit at the edge of my bed staring at nothing
-Soon, do it soon-
I sit at the edge of my bed tears flow down my face
-Your so close-
I sit at the edge of my bed staring at the floor
-Put it close to your arm-
I sit at the edge of my bed staring at the ceiling
-Make the motion-
I sit at the edge of my bed watching the world go black
-Good keep going-
I sit at the edge of my bed
-Goodnight-
