No One Told Me What To Do

No One Told Me what To DO

So I just go on
Following You

But my own words I make into prose
and still make mistakes from my toes

AS I never said I was a poet
And If I was I would not know it

I think I listen to just two or three on here
That's the same number as my ears (just two will do.. As have checked my ears)

So although I write
I do take fright

As It's you that I really want to hear
Not the ear wax in my ear

That blocks out all the sounds
which could be quite profound

Deaf as a post me
Not just quite yet.. 
but what a reality..

The sound of my own silence
lingering around

DAMO
