Analysis of Voices



Do you know how sad
 just how sad one person can be ,
and just how lonely a soul gets?
That's where I am in life,
no not saying that's just for any sympathy,
just wanted anyone to hear the sound of it.
 Can you hear it,
or is it  only the sound of my own voice,
screaming to get out.
