She speaks to me fondly of passions and talents,                                                  guitars and stars,                                        then stops short                                          and apologies for speaking at all.
All because somewhere in her life,        someone she loved broke her heart      by ignoring her beautiful words            and telling her to                                        shut up,                                                      keep it down,                                                nobody cares.
People aren't born sad.                            We make them that way.
