Can You Hear Me?

Can you hear me

Am I loud enough

Selective hearing you must have

He hears me

Why not you

Is my weeping not loud enough

Are my pleads not sincere enough

Am I not loud enough

Why can you not hear me

Should I yell

Get louder

Beg

What haven’t I done

All I ask is that you hear me

Please hear me

So I ask again

Can you hear me?

Yes very real. I like how you set up your poem I could feel the emotion

I think we have all been in a similar situation.. why is it always the one we want to hear us the most, just cannot. Nice job capturing that frustration
