    Why Don't You Listen
    We used to be so close
    Now I feel like you look through me
    We’d share everything
    Now we are strangers passing
    We would know each other’s pain
    Now my screams fall on deaf ears
    What changed to make you turn your back?
    Am I not still the same person?
    Does my heart not pump the same blood?
    Do I not breathe the same air?
    You hear but you don’t listen
    You see but you don’t register
    You observe but feel nothing
    I try to talk to you
    Make you listen
    Banging my head on a brick wall
    Pounding my fists until they bleed
    Why won’t you listen?
    Why won’t you hear my plea?
    My heart shatters in front of your eyes
    Tears flood out like a torrential downpour
    Yet still you tune out
    Only hear what you want to
    I need your support
    I’m desperate for your understanding
    I scream louder to try and reach you
    My lungs burst with the agony
    You stare blankly
    Message not received
    I grab you, shake you
    Implore you, plead with your heart
    Yet your shoulder brushes me away
    So cold
    I drown in loneliness
    We used to be so close
    Now I feel like you look through me
    We’d share everything
    Now we are strangers passing
    We would know each other’s pain
    Now my screams fall on deaf ears
    What changed to make you turn your back?
    Am I not still the same person?
    Does my heart not pump the same blood?
    Do I not breathe the same air?
    You hear but you don’t listen
    You see but you don’t register
    You observe but feel nothing
    I try to talk to you
    Make you listen
    Banging my head on a brick wall
    Pounding my fists until they bleed
    Why won’t you listen?
    Why won’t you hear my plea?
    My heart shatters in front of your eyes
    Tears flood out like a torrential downpour
    Yet still you tune out
    Only hear what you want to
    I need your support
    I’m desperate for your understanding
    I scream louder to try and reach you
    My lungs burst with the agony
    You stare blankly
    Message not received
    I grab you, shake you
    Implore you, plead with your heart
    Yet your shoulder brushes me away
    So cold
    I drown in loneliness

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
