Echoes

echoes of emotion
permeate the room
from wall to wall

Can you not hear it?
Screaming, shrieking
Clamoring to be heard

Falling on deaf ears
No one hears, responds
Except for me

Like the Tell-Tale Heart 
I hear every sound
But can not react

Why no response
From the crowd
They must hear

It is the breaking of my heart
The rending of my soul
The turmoil of my spirit

And yet they leave
Saying their good nights
Leaving me alone with the pain

Leaving me alone
