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.
