Listen


 you talk I Iisten

I talk but you hear

 you talk i remember

I talk but you forget

You say my words are truth

How could you know

You must listen to truth

You can not hear or see truth

You say my words are strong

But you only grow weak

You may hear me

But do you listen to me

Listen to my words

Remember my words 

"Truth cometh by hearing not by sight"
