I hear them.
I’m learning quickly
quietly
I don’t say a word
neither do they
but I hear them.
Loudly
Clearly
But you, who can say loud words
and make sounds,
You struggle.
I don’t know why,
Not yet
You, talk with me.
Tell me what’s going on
and make everything clear
so that I know.
You, talk to me.
Talk to me like they do
Let everything out
but with words.
You, just talk with me.
(And let’s be enemies no longer)
