Listen

Do you hear me when I talk

 

When I'm speaking my mind

 

Telling you my thoughts

 

No, I didn't think so

 

you only listen to what you want to hear

 

Listening to YOLOs, THOTs, and come over here’s

 

I'm tired of every other word being heard

 

Meanwhile you're looking at me like I'm obscured

 

I'm not changing for anyone and I'll

 

be damned if I shorten my thoughts for you

 

So, I walk away from anyone who decides that

 

they don't want to fully hear me!!

 

Instead they only want to see me.

 

Do yourself a favor and LISTEN!!!
