Sea of Voices

Why do I talk? When the sound is lost in a sea of voices Lost among the waves of a never-ending storm Never to be heard of or acknowledged Why do I speak? When other people create tsunamis Capsizing my ship of lost dreams The mass going overboard, taking all with it Why do I cry out? When the voices inside my head are the only company Their echoing being the only response I get Sirens that lure me into promises that don't exist So instead, I sob in whispers And from the tears, create a salt filled ocean My tears and voice lost forever in time In an infinite sea of voices
