Voice

Did you hear my voice
Yes I know you did
I was crying as usual
Pleading for your time
I wonder if it was noise
You had blocked out
As a meaningless sound
Or some chimes
Since you left without a word
I have no doubt
You don't think of me
If you said anything
You'd say you were tired
Of not being heard
That I never listen to you
I never tell the truth
You are wrong though
The statement is false
I always listen, I do
I didn't lie, but away you flew
The first flight out of here
Enjoy your silence
Enjoy the time
Enjoy the solitude
The quiet
You have what you want
All of your time back
And most of all, my absence
