Listen

I spoke

You heard

And replied with something absurd.

Did you listen?

Or is it just me,

Thinking you responded outrageously.

I'm human.

I make mistakes too,

But the right to laugh isn't given to you.

I need support,

Someone who cares;

Not someone who just stops and stares.

Can you hear me,

What I'm trying to say?

No, your judgment stands in the way.
