Hear Me Out
By Ashley O’Hare
Hear me out for once;
I have had speeches
Berserkly buzzing and
Bumping around my brain
For ages.
Those rash decisions
Had packets of
Research behind them.
You didn’t see
The warning signs,
But they were there.
They existed then.
They exist now.
I never made it out
Of that storm.
Without a guide,
I lost my footing.
Without your confidence,
My best intentions misfired.
If you can see me now,
Please stick around.
I have a story to tell you,
If you’ll hear me out.
