Can you hear me?
Of course you can't.
Nobody can.
And they can't hear you, either.
Because we are all just words on a screen.
They can only hear what we tell them.
They say not to put yourself on the internet...
But that's the only way we can be heard.
That's the only way to distract from the silence in our hearts.
I could be standing next to you.
Writing this next to you.
Right now.
And you would never know.
Because to you, I am just words on a screen.
And to me, you are nothing.
Because I can't hear you.



Will you talk to me?
