Analysis of Pointless Whisper
I’m in pain
I’m hurting and you won’t help
I don’t ask, even for what I need
I look at you and try to plead
through my expression
But you don’t look or don’t care
These things begin to wear
Rough on my heart
Do you care?
No.
It’s my burden alone to bear
I will delete this before one of your eyes lies upon it
Another pointless whisper
Carried away by the wind
