Listen

When you say, 'I've been there' I know better You never listened you didn't hear As you intone, 'I feel your pain' I bite my tongue You can't hurt in your mind when you don't have a brain O, that you'd listen to everything I have to say O, that you'd analyze the details my way You have two sound eyes, a pair of good ears too ~ Yet none are for me, they're only for you

Good Morning Gershon. Hello. I found your entry and words most powerful and I see much truth within your words as well. I always wonder too if people are listening and seeing as well.... Thank you for sharing your poetic talent. May this day find you well. Blessings always (smile)

Some folks are just self centered and that's a fact! Another good one, GW.
