A Dumb Boy's Expression Poem by Abimbola Ogunsowobo

Quiet is my every day sound
No music and no noise
I see people moving their body to dance
And I wonder why they are doing so
I see people opening their mouth to say something
I see the expressions on their faces
But can't hear hear exactly what they are saying
Will it take me forever to hear no sound?
I just want to hear what a sound is like
I want to the sound of music, laughter, crying, yelling, screaming.
I want more sound
I want to hear myself talk
I want sound.
