here i am, yelling into the void
hoping that somehow it yells back
i’m not asking for much, honestly
even a mere whisper is enough
any semblance of recognition
just something to keep me sane
why, you ask,
why scream into a black hole
knowing full well nothing comes out of it?
knowing full well it simply sucks everything in
because it is a black hole?
well, i hope
i hope that against all odds,
against all the laws of nature,
all the laws of physics,
that maybe i’ll get a reply
maybe even just a mere echo of my voice
i hope for anything
anything
because there’s nothing worse than screaming out your heart and soul
waiting and waiting for some form of acknowledgement
and getting absolutely no response at all
drones and lilies ;
