When No One is Listening…

No Voice

Tipping his head back, he screamed.

Pain, outrage and desperation embodied in that disturbing sound.

No one listened.

No one heard, because his shout was lost amongst so many other clamouring voices.

He wasn’t surprised or disappointed. At least he’d had the opportunity to speak.

Suddenly the crowd fell silent.

Only his voice rang out and once again, he laid bare his agony before all.

No one listened.

No one cared and he was devastated because he knew conclusively that although he’d been given the opportunity to speak, no one was interested.

He realised he had no voice at all.
