Originally written in 2004 but revised later on in 2009 or 2010. Sorry, I don't have the original. It was on an old xanga account which I've deleted.

Why do you listen

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem can go one of 2 ways...it can either carry a lot of substance and deep meaning or none at all whatsoever and still sound somehow like a poem...either way is fine by me. (But, why would you write a poem that could possibly mean nothing to someone?) now if you are one who likes to dwell on lyrical content, you will find that this poem directly addresses that question. that's why the speaker I chose for this poem is a very curious and nervous character(also quite intelligent who is also a poet. He doesn't much like expressing his concerns directly and for a good majority of the poem he just rambles. but towards the end he grows more comfortable and direct maybe a little bitter but that's just my opinion now i don't know which side of this speaker's speach carries the most meaning, that's up to u to decide...there's no right or wrong in my opinion...but i hope u like him :)...oh and the stanzas are devided according to his "mood swings".
