Wall to wall

Faces

Staring, judging.

A silent plea for it all to stop.

Do they even know you?

Floor to floor

Bodies

Moving, pushing.

A silent prayer for the pain to stop.

Do they even see you?

Classroom to classroom

Teachers

Teaching, ignoring.

A silent cry for help.

Do they even hear you?

When does it all end?

The judging.

The pushing.

The ignoring.

When do they get to know you?

When do they open their eyes?

When do they learn to listen?

When?
