Voiceless

No one listens.
No one will care.

I am unheard,
my voice too soft.
It's just one of seven billion,
who would care?

No one.
That is,  when you are breathing, with a heartbeat.

When you are burried, 
without heartbeat,
or a breath,
six feet under, 
your
words seem to matter so much more.

Funny, how only when you're dead
people start to listen...
