Can you hear me? 

I'm here wanting someone to ask if I'm okay.

I wait and wait but no one can hear me.

No one notices the hurt I go through.

No one notices the pain and suffering.

I wait and wait for teachers to hear me,

but they don't.

He hits and beats me.

How can no one see it?

It feels helpless to rely on others.

Has the voice from within died?
