i listen;

to your excitement,

to your tears,

to your mindless theories,

to your laughter,

to your complaints, 

to your anger,

i listen with my soul.

i listen,

although i'm breaking apart,

although my mind's too loud,

although my heart's in pieces,

although my strength's worn out.

i listen,

because, i know how it feels;

to not be heard.

because voices unheard become echoes of despair,

i listen,

through my own chaos,

through my own storms,

through the darkness that envelops my mind.

i listen,

because i care,

because your voice gives me hope,

that one day maybe, i'll be heard too.
