Why Cant They ?
Can they hear the words inside my head?
The thoughts being spoken the things being said
Can they see the things I see?
Are they real or imagined is it just me
Can they understand the turmoil I'm in ?
My mind races now from one thought to another
Can’t they realise all this I’m trying to smother
I see myself in my very own dream
Can’t they see and can’t they hear my scream
These sights and sounds this uneasy sensation
Can I stop this madness of my own creation?
I just need some sense some clarity
Can’t they see I need peace and serenity?
I need to move forward and find inner peace
Can’t they see I want these imaginings to cease
Words thoughts and deeds come again to me
Can’t they realise from all of this I need to be free
I’m crying inside from deep within my soul
Can’t they see I need to get out of this bottomless hole?
I choose not this life it’s not of design
Can they hear them the voices coming back so to this I resign?

it was inspired a friend of a friends son who was born profoundly deaf and mute and it got me to wondering what must this person must be thinking he was a lovely guy but you really cant imagine what this person must be thinking and saying to himself
this piece is really heart touching for me because I work with people who are deaf and other various disabilities.
However, my first reaction to this read was "this is why I write, so they will hear me".
This now has two different meanings. Thank you!
