Ears That Don't Hear

Ears that don't hear.

Mouths gone mute.

Hearts a-hurting.

I talk to you

and my words bounce off the walls.

They never seep through.

And now I’m bleeding out.

Author's Note

Originally I had hearts a-bleeding in the first stanza, but I took that out after adding the second stanza. Didn't want to say bleeding twice...

This is a very well written poem if you ask me. It has real meaning behind it, and that- to me- is one of the most important aspects of poem. Well done!
