Unheard Voices

The kicks in the womb, 

Eager to jump out

To the mother's bosom. 

The urge of an infant, 

Whose lovely eyes

Yearn the father's arms. 

 

The pain of the student, 

Whose tiring fingers

Just ask to slow down. 

The call of the teen, 

Whose confused mind

Seeks a shoulder to lean. 

The fatigue of the worker, 

Whose burden body needs

Just a minute to rest. 

The distress of the spouse, 

Whose aching heart

Just needs a hug to ease. 

The loneliness of the aged, 

Whose trembling limbs

Just need support. 

The perplexed self, 

That just needs some

Peace of mind to introspect. 

All these emotions, just ask, 

"Can you hear me? "

If these unheard voices, 

Of silence, despair and distress

Are really heard, 

Then, you heard it all.
