Did You Hear That?
Weekly Prompts Jan. 22–28, 2022

I needed to express
Did you hear that?
My cries
Dropping of the tears
From my eyes
Sinking of my heart
When you, they, and nobody
Was there to support
My childishness
When the very part of my being
Was getting rejected
I fell short
Of every achievement came in my way
I missed beats
Every time I breathed in
Would you please tell me
Did you hear that?
I know
You don't have any hint
Of my feelings being questioned
Well then I let you free
As if there was no link
