Mirror Inward

Those who talk a lot, fall in love with their own voices. How can they ever know me, when they only see themselves.  How can they really listen? And realize I have a unique identity and a story to tell, different than their own. When will their eyes open, and their closed hearts care?   Once again seeing more than their own reflection.
