Hello, can you hear me?
I have a lot to say
Did you close your
mind again, and your eyes?
Are you playing blind again?

Hello, I’m trying to talk
to you, or do you not
want to listen to what
I have to say? What? Did
you say you can’t hear me?
Are you sure? Is it that
you only hear what you want
to hear, and see what
you want to see?

Hello, I’m knocking
at your door, oh it’s
closed, did you shun
me….again? (Sigh), no surprise
I just need you to listen to me
for one second, a minute.

Hello, I am waving at
you, trying to get your
attention, I’m over here,
no over here... wait, did you
just turn your back? I'm not
invisible, I know you
see me, I know you hear me,
just give me one second,
one minute of your time,
I’m trying to tell you something!

I’m SHOUTING! SHOUTING to the top of
my lungs now, I just want you
to listen, listen to me,
I have something to tell you,
something very important
that you need to know

Now I am SCREAMING,
I am SCREAMING so loud
with every breath of air
in my body that I am shaking,
because you can no longer pretend
you can’t hear me or see me, or act like
I don’t exist, I have something to tell you
and you must listen, just listen to
what I have to say, I just want to let
you know that.....
I TOO AM HUMAN!!

Thanks again..I was feeling it yesterday and wrote it at that moment.

I guess sometimes you have to remind people that we all are.

Remarkable!

And guess what? I hear you, loud and clear!!

Thank you, much love.

(Somehow in my mind I imagine Denzel or Larry Fishburne reciting this..wouldn't it be cool if they did, with such emotion..ahhh, wishful thinking)

Hey, you keep right on thinking it, because you just never know what the future may bring!

HatrinaHaterwitz said:
