Materialistic

I screamed
But no one heard
I broke down in front of them
But no one saw
I was a mountain collapsing
A bolt of thunder hitting ground
A storm that broke loose
Nonetheless no one saw
Heard
Or noticed
I was ignored
I didn't want pity
Attention
Or empathy
All I wanted
Was a shoulder to cry on
A hand to hold when times were tough
A genuine friend
In our materialistic world
Is that too much to ask?
