Silent Audience
They hear lonely little sobs,
screams of rage, muffled by fluff,
rare, quiet laughs of glee,
and a restless mind tossing and turning in sheets.
But the human within that room
cannot hear the sorrow
that those walls feel,
as they are cursed to hear but never speak.
Forever secluded and yet so near.
