WHO NEEDS A LISTENER




 


Who needs a listener if you can safely talk away to yourself? 

In the shower, you can release feelings held in for hours. 

What did she say again today, that made anger bubble up? 

I had to walk away to stop the words I really wanted to say. 

At times it is much better that way. 

Here my thoughts can be expressed, you are the perfect silent listener. 

I felt my anger, and dirt wash away down the plughole with no resistance. 

Refreshed and dressed I can return and express regret at words I once uttered. 

Saying sorry is a word that is difficult to say, but really meant.
