Poem 21

No one gets it

No one hears me

I'm screaming at them but it's as if I'm mute

I can't breathe

My throat is tight

All my words, suffocating me

This isn't easy

Typing my feelings on a page

You're the only one who listens

Someone who actually stays

I'm holding on tight

Maybe I'm clingy

But that's just because

No one listens
