Inconsolable Child
Her voicelessness always scared me.
As she could only cry for the longest time.
And I could tell that in that little mind-
She had some sort of pain that my softest whispers could never cure.
The doctors all said she was simply too attached.
But really, I felt I could never connect.
Even though we both tried.
But we were both so tired from crying.
