Cries Unheard

That gentle voice she longs to hear
Telling her there’s nothing to fear
In the night so dark and cold
Where the screams ring out so bold
But into a void they seem to fall
She never hears that answering call
So she sits and waits for any reply
And ever more desperate is her cry
Her loneliness becoming bittersweet
As her hope and faith become obsolete
