Unheard Poem by Karissa Earley

I can't shake this feeling,
the dread won't go away.
A voice inside my head keeps saying,
nothing will be okay.

Why is it so hard,
to find someone to care.
Who will stand by your side,
who will always be there.

I wanted to be his one& only,
but now I'm all alone.
I stare blankly at the wall,
waiting by the phone.

My faith disapears,
as my prayers remain unanswered.
His face haunts my vision,
my screams remain unheard.

Starting to hate the world,
as I expect everyone to leave.
Why can't they understand,
I'm standing but I can't see.

I try to reach out,
but I fall to my knees.
Whispering softly,
why won't you catch me.

I close my blinded eyes,
foresaken to this doom.
Ripping apart my chest,
I can't breath; there's no room.

I scream but no one hears,
I'm isolated in this silence.
I try to escape but I can't run,
I'm trapped inside my violence.
