Let me speak
Then listen to my song,
To that which has not been heard before

Let me speak
Then listen and believe,
That which is unbelievable

Let me speak
Then listen, understand
That what cannot be understood

Let me speak
Then listen; cry with me,
Cry when there are no tears left.

Let me speak
Then listen; try to heal
Try to heal my mortal wound.

Let me speak
Then listen; try to find a reason why.
Try to find what cannot be found.

Let me speak
Then listen and accept what I must do:
That which our hearts will never accept.

Let me speak
Then listen, let me go
Let go while still holding on

Let me speak
Then listen let me die
While I still live on.

Let me speak
Then listen to tell the world my tale.
Tell them what they do not want to hear.


The author's comments:
Ther is a lot today that the world does not hear because it does not want to hear or to know. But that does not make it any less real and no matter how horrible it may be the truth needs to be heard. That is the only way it can ever go away and no longer be reality.
