Let me listen, hear

Let me listen, hear

A Poem by What happened to simple old me?
"

I heard something, but nobody would be quiet, I couldn't ask them... I'd appear slightly cook-y,,, but it's still bugging me. That moment was unimaginable; wasted.

"
Let me cast you away,
the days wild as cannons in the sea
crashing down on my skin
torn away and shed, curled back and burnt
in the fire that surrounds
warmth that I can't escape
breathless, undignified you see me cry

when nothing is wrong, this perfect place
where she says I'm so lucky, just so
because I can't help but feel the remorse
as my name is called,
you shout,
and finally when all is quiet
I recall,
all I can do is hear the screams.

And when I thought I heard familiar voices, that 
I'd never heard before, I felt ill.
Sickness, they wouldn't stop
the feeling. Building. Help me
over. Over again you speak

I need to hear it. I asked
no noise 
Now
I need to hear it again, let it call to me
they carried on, and all was lost

Where will I hear that voice again?

If I will not, I'll relive the anger
that I felt at that time when 
I needed bliss, complete
utter silence
to surround me, it would be my dream
to have that moment
in the silence.
