Mind's Eye

Hear me

Why can't you hear me,

As I scream and cry?

Why can't you see me,

When I'm falling from the sky?

I thought I was important,

I thought I was something great,

I thought I could do anything,

Now tears are streaming down my face.

My cries go unheard,

Like a little lost bird's,

Until I can not feel the pain.

The shame in it,

Despite all that,

Is that I still want you to hear.

Please hear my sorrowful cries,

You should know I can see through all the lies.

You apologize many times,

But I can not hear,

For your lies are drowned out,

By an invisible tear.

For all those who see through others lies and are broken on the inside.
