Mimic Me

His hands are warm and his smile is kind

I can not hear him but he doesn't mind

And though he doesn't understand the words that I signed

I feel like our thoughts and words are still intertwined

My stress and my anger make my teeth start to grind

He'll place a hand on my shoulder as his gental remind

That he'll be with me forever he won't let me fall behind

As he smiles at me with faith and happiness combined

I am thankful that I am deaf and not blind
