Echoes of Your Voice

 

Echoes of your voice cannot be heard.


It is not you, it is me

I cannot see what you can

I cannot hear what you can

I cannot understand what you speak

Your words resound in the silence deep

But it is you who cannot reach me

An iron wall you have built

Shutting off feelings of pain and guilt

No happiness are you willing to find

Scared of a broken heart, a world unkind

You refuse to live your life to find

The world is full of happiness and hope

Open your heart, and love will pour


This poem is about how people can isolate themselves from others around them and live in their own world.
