I Heard

I hear everything, do not ask me how. I can hear your fear, your whispers, and your stares.

I heard the moon calling out to the sun. I heard the trees speaking to the flowers. I hear the grass murmuring with the dew. I heard the animals basking in the sun.

But I can hear even more.

I even heard him yelling. I heard him hitting. I heard him cutting, smashing, and destroying.

I even heard him say he didn't want me. I heard him say that I was a burden. I heard him wish I would leave.

He did not hear me watching him.
