I have deafness,
How it feels?
It feels frustrating
when you can't hear and understand
what people are saying.
It makes life challenging for you.
You have a hearing aid but it
doesn't do much difference.
You keep complaining how it is so hard
to hear. People get mad
when you misunderstand them.
But you try to explain to them.
But does no good.
You struggle in life.
It makes life different for
you because of your deafness.
You don't know how others hear
but it doesn't matter because you were born with
your deafness. You talk loud and you get told to lower
your voice and you tell them
I can't help it. I don't know how loud i am talking.
You wish others would understand that you don't try to talk loud.
But it makes no difference.
But you have something special
that others don't have and that is your deafness.
You see the world different than others.
But you are happy the way you are.
 
Beautifully written and well said. Did you write the poem yourself? If so, You've done a great job. I do believe poem is one of a form that can help you express your feelings and thoughts out off your chest. It's all good.
 
yes,i did write the poem myself in my own words, and thanks for the comment.
I thought that it would be a good idea to share my poem with you all.
