You've Been Heard (for Demi Lovato)

Just when you fell silent
hand dropping from
your keys and strings
pushing your chair back
drinking up your daggar's tears

Secrets picked out
from under your angry skin
left your cracking voice
to fade out with your
shuffling sounds of feet

See your flurried storm
deposit at our doors
in art your packaged form
beaneath frozen heartach
blind to your wisdom lake
breaking through to me

Oh will you hear
that you have been heard?
From your ice-crevasse
below the permafrost

You have been heard!
