Listen to the silent screams
Do you listen?
Do you hear?
Do you watch closely your peers?
I can see them,
I can hear.
I can listen for their fears.
Do you focus?
Do you try?
Do you struggle in your life?
I know struggles,
I know strength.
I know the worries of a day.
Do you wonder?
Do you cry?
Is it hard to empathize?
I can't help them,
I can't cry.
I am haunted by their eyes.
Do you worry?
Do you sigh?
Do you struggle with the lies?
I do worry,
I do sigh.
I do struggle with the lies.
Do you hear the drum beat beat?
Do you hear the girls quiet screams?
I can hear them,
I can see.
I can fear them for they torture me.
Do you question?
Do you hear?
Do you push for truth among your peers?
Please I urge you,
hear the cries.
Please I urge you,
watch the eyes.
