Will you listen to me?

If I change my posture

Keep my back straight shoulders down

As I look you in the eye

Would you listen?

If I smile gently

Mischievously

Seductively

Will it get you to listen to me ?

If I spit facts at you

Give you numbers

Make a point

Would you finally listen?

If I cry

If I beg

If I rage

What will it take for you to listen to me?

My body?

My bones?

My soul?

Desperation brews animosity

Understanding is all I need

Yet you still refuse to listen to me
