"Speak"

Birddie Jane

hi, I'm speaking to you.

can you hear me?

no; I guess you can't.

or are you just choosing not to?

why don't you answer me?

I just want to talk. 

I thought... somehow we'd communicate. 

you love talking to other perople. 

you do it all the time.

The only time you actually talk to me, 

is to tell me about those other conversations.

i want to be heard to.

i want a chance to speak.

please.

i don't want to be silent anymore.

i don't want to lose my voice.

hi, I'm speaking to you.

can you hear me?
