'It's just my little voice that I've been missing … '
—Sara Bareilles, 'Little Voice', Theme Song For Apple+ Original Television Series, You Tube Music Video

Your silences, silent answers to my questions
do not become you. And I wonder what is running
through that heart, that mind of yours, running away,
wanting away, no feelings as you say in that poem I like.
While away. While … pray, reveal yourself, reveal yourself,
reveal what's deep down inside of you for both our sakes.
