pain unseen, pain not heard

Listen

to her whispered words

To her desperate cries

To her story

Watch

As she slowly fades away

As she struggles to stay above the water

As she fights this fight alone

Are you going to help her?

Are you going to do something?

Or are you just going to stand there and watch?

Did you even hear her desperate cries?

Or were you deaf to them as well

Like your blind to her pain?
