Screaming silence

The world Whispering, silently 
To the girl on the cliff
her legs rocking back and forth 
Humming, ever so quietly 

You see her eyes...
Through the veil of her hair
her tears seep through 
The cracks in her guise
she continues to scream

She sits on the ledge
dangling her legs over the side 
Gradually bathing in the past
Flowing over the edge
And over again

she screams silently 
At the world 
That teems with noise 
Reluctantly

Calling for guidance
Just a faint hum haunts the air 
Among violent vibrations 
And silence

her voice grows numb 
As nights go by and days grow dim
stars are struck dumb
her veins contact and slim 

she continues to scream 
Hoping, one day 
Someone will hear
her quiet little cry 
Out of the shadows
And the dark 

Too scared, to trust 
Of being misunderstood 
Too scared to stop screaming.
too scared of the past  

she tries to breathe,
And she counts to ten 
her body falls 
Lament 

Hear the worlds whisper
From that girl on the cliff 
As the world Begins to move and shake
Feel the hum 
Once again.....

This is a sad poem. I can feel her hoplessness how no one can hear her. So many people could relate to that feeling. This was really deep and I loved it
