Stop, and just listen
For the ones unheard
Stop, and just listen
And maybe you’ll begin to hear…
The tears that splatter gently
Unto a hard wood floor
Shed by a broken father
Who has no children and a divorce
If you Stop, and just listen
You’ll hear the cries
For a future, a better life
Coming all the way from Africa
So silence your thoughts
And you’re squandering mind
Still your troubles, your joys
Your little sorrows and pains
Because if you stop
Then you can finally start
To just Listen….
What do you think about it?
