No One Hears Pain


I don’t have a patch on my
eye, or a scar on my face

no one hears pain

I don’t have a crutch under
arm, or a cast on my ankle

no one hears pain

I don’t have a head without
hair, or a chemo appointment

no one hears pain

I don’t have a prescription,
or some plant natural cure

no one hears pain

I don’t know how to describe,
or to word how I’m feeling

no one sees  - - - -
