Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had poetry on, how to put this.. sound? Deafness?

My partner is deaf and in all the years we've been together I've never thought of it in the form of poetry until tonight.

Thank you for any help.

and for your trouble:

"You want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated,
so that people can say ‘Wow, isn’t he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?’
You think I’ll be the dark sky so you can be the star? I’ll swallow you whole."
