When I whispered your name,

Could you hear it?

When I called out to you,

Did you hear it?

When I scream in my head,

Should you hear it?

When I sobbed my heart out,

Would you hear it?

•••

_I never told this to you, _

_But I always held hope…_

•••

One day you could’ve heard,

All the whispered words.

One day you might’ve heard,

Every lonely call.

One day you should’ve heard,

The screams I let slip.

One day you would’ve heard,

My quiet crying.

•••

_Now all you can hear, _

_Is my ghost. _
