As I stand here
My mind rolls on and on;
From home to school to meaningless names and faces.

As I stand here
I hear a jumble of words that make no sense.

As I stand here
Attempting be the word to listen.

As I stand here
My own words a constant, annoying drip of water.

As I stand here
My thoughts racing on 'what ifs'.

As I stand here
Attempting to hear the right lesson.

As I stand here
Irritated by those who joke.

As I stand here
Hoping someone, anyone will understand.

As I stand here
Angry beyond measure as they talk as if they understand.

As I stand here
wishing for help.

As I stand here
These "stupid" "ugly" things in my ears.

As I stand here
People stand over there judging me.

As I stand here
Knowing they will never understand.

As I stand here
My hearing horrible without some help.

As I stand here
With hearing aids;
Doing what I can't.

As I stand here
Strong and proud because they will only get so far denying.

As I stand here stubborn yet resilient.

As I stand here
Basking in my differences.

As I stand here
Their thoughts will never matter.

As I stand here
Thier judgement passes in one bad ear throughout the other one.

As I stand here
Not giving a care to their words.

As I stand here
You stand over there.

As long as I stand here
Not a thing is wrong with me, it's only you who judges.

I deal with it daily... People think they understand but they don't... They pity me but I refuse to accept their pity because I'm to strong to give up. As long as their mouths throw up garbage they will never understand....
