The Listener

'What you share with the world is what it keeps of you'

But it's hard to tell how much to give
When no one wants what you have to offer.

Why would my story be worth telling
When it's likely a piteous weed
In a forest of grand tales
That deserve to be heard?

The Break, the seismic shift
When we notice sincerity vanishing;
And we Break to bits and pieces
Around our carefully constructed world.

Who do we think we are?
Breaking down around our first world
Our lives, a charade devoid of genuine
Our deepest shame the only blemish

The poised venom of skinny hips
Made-up eyes, false lashes and stained lips
Bleached hair, cracked nails
Killer heels and consequential trips

Everyone wants to be heard
But nobody want to listen.

So I.
I will be the Listener:
Your joys, your loves, your pains
Your fears, your life, your hates
I will hear you

I will suffer your whines
I will endure your useless moans
But I will crave your passions
And love your intuitions

I will.
