My Voice Not Heard

Your compliments aren’t enough to make me feel better.

My small smile shows, but you don’t understand.

I try to talk, but ya’ll talk over me.

To me, my voice sounds so little compared to ya’ll.

I try to explain, but you don’t listen.

That just makes me sadder.

Ya’ll don’t care about what he says to me, yet ya’ll care if I say something bad to him.

If he does something bad, ya’ll don’t care.

But, if I do, ya’ll go mad.

I say it’s not fair, but ya’ll don’t care.

Why can’t my voice be heard?

I try so much, but it never happens.

My eyes are covered with water, because of you all.
