Nobody Ever Listens to Anything I Say


I used to talk a lot, I don't talk too much now.

Because everyone else is talking, 

and I'm supposed to be listening.

I'm in great distress at the reality of this situation

that my talking has given them nothing to speak about.

I feel that the things I say are just as important as anyone else,

but I guess I'm the only one that feels that way.

I speak of 

Love

God

Trust

and what we should do as people.

But as I said before, nobody cares.

I think if I completely stopped talking,

no one would even notice I was there.
