Why do we sing if
no one is listening? We still open our mouths And let the notes out They fly freely, And find anyone’s ears Whether they are ready to listen or not. Someone will hear. Someone will care. And if no one does, we still sing We have hope. We want our message to be heard. Why do we dance if no one is watching? We groove to our favourite tunes We work hard night after night So hard we fight with our muscles We hope someone out there will notice. Maybe they will hear our taps, Or see our perfect stance. Better yet, they might enjoy it. We could have an audience Or even better we could have a show. A performance! We only hope For someone to watch our stories. Why do we write if no one is reading? We constantly push pens to paper, Tap words on keyboards. Print endless pages Of poems, stories, essays, journals, and random blabs. We despair for a reader Someone to appreciate our work It hurts to pour out our souls But yet we do. Just to get the recognition In the hope, Of someone being able to relate, To our lives. Or at least what we tell of them |
