I Want.

To be heard
Someone to hear me
but no.
That's not how this works
you listen till you can't no more
and when your voice is squeaking out
they turn away.
leaving the person with so much to say
only when they want a chance to speak 
out against all that is cruel in this world
I Want
My voice out there 
to not have to listen 
opening up and sharing all that is good
having been drowning under the pressure 
of the water thrown straight in with a weight holding me
at the bottom of this lake
Whats the point screaming 
when no one can hear you cry
