Listen

Just listen to me before you say another word

For your words might not be true

The words that cut deep into me

Before you yell and raise your voice

Listen

Listen to what I have to say

For no voice is too small to be heard

For how do you know the ideas and opions of others

As long as you don't listen

Do you just listen to your own?

Even if I talk

You shut me out

Listen

Listen to my side

Before you jump to conclusions

Listen

Listen

So now that I have said

What I need to say

My only hope is

That you will listen
