voiceless

if you knew me
you know i find it hard to speak
i uttered syllables that pleaded rescue
but you were too occupied
to even hear

i set my cries aside
to find it taking its toll
the walls i built suddenly caved in
i needed you
but now i cannot run to you

i've set my cries aside
because you cannot hear
i needed you
but now how can i run to you?
the words that you shut off
have locked me in
alone
