I Have Heard.

i have heard the wind in the trees

i have heard the sickening silence even the spread of disease.

i have shut up to listen to the thunder roll

i have shut up to hear the crashing of metal as a car lost control.

i listen to the hushed tunes of ballet;i listen to the loud rock and metal as my mind floats away.

i hear the ripping of flesh and the tearing of skin;i hear the broken hearts of boys and girls as tears roll down their faces from his or her sin.

i have basked in the sound of a beautiful voice.

i have basked in the sound of a woman stand up for herself and make a real choice.

i am different and special as opposed to most people you find.

i may be deaf but i can hear your heart and mind.
