i may not have much to say
i may stutter on my way
but listen to me
listen
i need for you to hear
if i pause for just a moment
please dont look away
for even as you do
i'm on my way back
i'm trying to gather my thoughts
that i may unravel them
quickly enough
before you lose interest
look at me
please look at me
i need to be heard
it may not seem important
but it is to me
can you hear me
can you listen
can you understand my heart
please

Well, I most definitely heard this tree fall...lol  
I'll do my best to grant your request
And maybe a little bit more...
For as you may be a fan of me,
Your work I adore a little bit more!  

Another masterpiece, dg!

You have captured here I believe a desperate
moment in time.When you want to be heard so bad it hurts,and words don't come quick enough.

Nice writing

Perhaps this need to be heard, is where the beginnings of poetry begin? A poem I can relate to, and understand.

septsong: i've been told my writing is something people can easily understand and relate to..i like to take that as a compliment    thank you..

alle' and dsnyder:  thank you greatly for your encouragement!

This is well-written, a plea maybe too many of us should hear, even when we have promised ourselves we will be "different" from the people who have failed to hear us.  But after all, isn't that one of the reasons we write, to make ourselves heard?

To love another person is to see the face of God.

Wow...You captured the plea for someone to hear you very well...    It's hard when no one seems to hear...

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.
