Analysis of Unheard Voices Of The Lonely
The corner of the class was my place to be.
It granted me the distance I wanted to be
I didn't want this unheard life but I stay
For my voices were heard but never listened.
My lips parted rarely and stayed together
The crippling fear of being judged by the other
I appeared silent despite my will to speak
My inner voice went unheard to the world.
I watched them speak and laugh and run
I watch them going to parties and having fun
Maybe my fear got the better of me then
I shall go unheard of by the rest as time passes.
Lonely at a corner, too afraid to speak to them
Never truly the part of any convo with them
I tried to speak with courage but was wasted,
For my voices were heard but never listened
I hope that I can overcome my fears to speak
And live my life in the way I wish it to be
Since it's better to speak your heart out
And let it be heard even if it isn't listened

About this poem
This poem is based on my feelings. As a kid, I was too scared to speak to anyone. That's why I didn't have any friends during my school life. Sad, but on the bright side, now I have a lot of friends! I actually started to speak out and this is the stage I am at
