Voice

just keep talking
I will listen
your voice burned a hole in my head.
I have too many reasons
to be angry but when you talk I can
forget about everything.
I really do not understand.
when I feel so broken that I can
bring myself to do something.
screams of the people around me
make me want to leave even more.
your voice becomes an anchor
keeping me afloat and I can
feel every bit of myself
you have pieced me together.
why do you always help me?
would you like to leave this country?
tonight we can do something
we never would have done before.
