Little Voice


'I don't want to be alone any more.'

It was such a little voice,
Lost into the enormous space that was...
 Everything else.

But all over the world,
The same thoughts were spoken,
ARE spoken;
Repeated
By hundreds,
Maybe thousands;
Maybe hundreds of thousands
Of lonely souls,
Over and over,
Filling the skies with their voices.
How is it that we don't hear such a cacophony?
Only sometimes we catch it,
Slithering across a desperate eye,
As dark as sadness.
Don't let them be alone.
Let's listen.
