Going unheard

Beneath dirt filled lungs
with parched lips,
she pushed out this...

whispered plea:

"When you remember to
please remind me
of all the reasons...

because my heart
has a way of forgetting,
when your mouth is silent
and your words few.

Causing the quiet to scream away my flesh."

But her weakend breath
went unheard.

Lost in translation
of the heart versus head communication,
leaving her "2 am lovesick"
and in need.
