This question is missing the excerpt. I've found it online. It is the following:
LINDA: Forgive me, dear. I can't cry. I don't know what it is, but I can't cry. I don't understand it. Why did you ever do that? Help me, Willy, I can't cry.

She is speaking regardless of whoever is hearing. In this case, she does have an audience - her dead husband. In a way, she is talking to him but, since he cannot hear her, she ends up talking to herself. Her questions will go unanswered.
