Deaf

by Amber   Mar 10, 2008


Speak up I can not hear
you. Your lips are
moving but nothing is
coming out of them.

Please speak up.
Wait, why are your
eyes red? Did I do
something wrong?

Finally you speak my
language. Your hands
move swiftly. Are my
eyes deceiving me?

Did you really say that?
Why do I have to leave?
Do you not love me
anymore?

Your eyes are throwing
tears down your rosy cheeks
with every question that I ask.
Please help me to understand.

So I guess this is goodbye.
I needed you but I guess you
did not want me. I thought you
understood me but I guess I
was wrong.

But I will always love you
even though you are leaving
me.

I see more tears escape your
eyes as you sign you love me
too and you are sorry.

I guess I am going to have
to get used to this so...
Bye.

    Wow. this is sooo amazing.

    Did you really say that?
    Why do I have to leave?
    Do you not love me
    anymore?

    ^ i can understand this. and though i am not deaf, it sometimes i feel like i am. some days, i don't understand. why, how, who, or what......sometimes it is just how i feel. so i can relate in a hypothetical manner. great job.
