"THE SILENCE OF IT ALL"
I can see the Birds Soaring through our Skies..I can see the Darkness of the Storm approaching..The Brightness of the Sun and the deep Blue of the Sky above..The Clouds as they Float by on a warm Afternoon in August as I lay upon the Ground staring Straight Up..But then there are those who cannot know what It is to See..........I can hear the Lightning when it cracks overhead so suddenly and Sends chills through my Soul...I can hear what someone is saying though Im not Looking at them..That lonely Airplane sound that is heard on a Lazy Summer Afternoon..The Barking of a stray Dog that echoes through the Day and the most Important thing of All..I am Able to Hear The Sound Of Music...But there are those who will never know the sounds of Life....I can Know..I can Smell the Flowers in the Spring as they awaken to another Season of Life....I can be Sorry and Sad that the Father I had wasnt a Father At All..Nor did my Mother Live up to being The Mother she was supposed to Be As they left me not Knowing if I was or Not...But there are those who will never know what a Mother or a Father is(For they will always be alone and left to Wonder)....I can be unHappy that Im growing old and Im still Alone and Ask the Question of Why Me to anyone who will lend an Ear..(But there were those who wished they couldve Lived even Half of My Years).....But I would give all that I have at this Moment if it could Change the Lives of all of those who will never Know what it is to Have What I have...To Hear...To See...To Feel...To Walk...To Be a Part Of...To Be Accepted...To Know they are Somebody...To Know they are needed...To Have what everybody else Has...To not Worry...But I amJust One ..Cant do that...For I am Alone and only One....And Ive left the Last One for the Last....The Ability to Cry.....This is the Attribute That I am well accustomed with..As I have the Most Experience with....That I have cried for myself was Selfish.....I should cry for those who will never know what it is to Have What I Have.......A Future Of Possibilities...
