Whispers
I hear them
Two voices, three, ten voices!
They are screaming on my ears
I want to hide
I can't
Am scared
Who are they? what are they doing here? Why me?!
What are they saying?
Are they laughing at me?
Do they know me?
They wake me up every hour
I can't take this anymore
"What's your number?"
For what?
My arms are tied up behind me
I am in a pool full of water
And I can't swim!
Is that a fish tank?
Leave me alone!
But they keep coming, two young girls, two older men
Get out!!
I feel sick, I feel faint, let me fall back
