I am deaf.
I am deaf,
But -
I can hear
The smiles of
Children
Playing so eagerly.
I can hear
The thoughts of
Business
Cold and calculating.
I can hear
The old man
Singing
About his memories.
Most of all
I can hear
You -
Crying in whispers
When I see
The
Big, gloomy eyes
You show to
Us -
My dear friend
Do not hide
It
Because I may
Not
Hear your woes
But I can
Listen.
