I can't hear you,

I can't hear anything,

Years of silence have numbed my ears,

My mouth unopened,

Words unspoken,

I won't respond,

I see your lips move,

But silence,

The sound is deafening,

I can't stand it,

I try to say something but...


The author's comments:

Silence, a lot of things are quiet in life, and we just can't bear it. Being alone and lonely make you feel icsolated and deaf

Nice slant rhyme between unopened and unspoken!
