Best Deaf Poems

I am whatever you say I am...
but, let's get back to reality...

       Three short years ago, this room shined welcome mats across a screen of doldrums.
A place of unfamiliarity that screamed, 
"You don't belong!"
Yet, a voice of reason spoke...

DEAF


I experience quietness all around
I can't hear any whispers, not even a sound
My eyes open, my feet on the ground
The sadness deepens, you can't be found
Tears fall without realizing I hold a frown

I smell the winter, I feel the ice
Somewhere deep in the forest, 
Everything...

My ears are deaf
I hate gossip
The emotions of everyday life
without words
Impressions through music
Create depth and more mindfulness

~ The wind in the willow trees has settled down ~

My ears are deaf
I hate gossip
Listening to the bluebells,
when the whole body screams for rest
An everlasting stream of information
Stress,...

I remember it so clearly,
The first time I saw you.
You said you loved my aviators.

Our meeting was so ordinary,
And having nothing witty to say
I just asked your name  
Standing in that long driveway.

Who would have thought
Two years later
I would be whispering your name
To the...

If I told you I was deaf would you turn away
Or would I read your lips that tell me its ok
Would you understand if I start to use my hands
And tell you how I feel
If I tried to speak and the words weren’t complete
Would you...

I'm just about deaf because of me wife,
Her very loud voice has caused all the strife,
It always goes up an octave or two
When she thinks I've made an incredible blue,
Trouble is I've been making mistakes all of me life....

Blind and Deaf

To never see the world
to never hear a sound
always having 
to feel my way around

To never see my mother
father or brother
to never hear them say a word
is like hanging for life, on the thinnest cord

To never hear my voice
to never see my face
is...

Whenever if you should ever find
yourself in desperate need of a 
2nd parties independent council
or friendly ear

And when you are willing to lay your
soul bare place your woes at their feet 
and they should dare interrupt 

Whilst you are trying to speak and
get the word's...

Tears fall that I cannot make 

Trembling legs but I do not shake

Screaming pain but I feel numb

Loud cries but I am always dumb

Seeing it all but I am truly blind

Thoughtful heart but Loving unkind

Breathing fast without a single breath

Living forever but dying a quick...

the aim of this poem is very simple

only want to tell you that the clothes
we wore on our wedding were light green, but
the leaves used to wrap the wedding cakes were a darker green.
sure, both are green, but a different green, my dear.

To expect love is selfish
Though being human it is so
To love means to give to others
Putting all their needs above

To open up to love shows courage
A vulnerability which each person masks
So they won't have to defend themselves
When the other person holds or pulls back

To simply...

I write so many poems that you don’t see
They end up in purple poem cemetery
Mangled in the **** of my maroon mind
Tangerine tangles of wasted time

Violet vines of not good enough
Tall teal trees of unreturned love
Winged words white like albino leaves
Falling to their death from...

She came back like she said she would.
Great grandma was not a typical ghost
She was a kindred spirit guiding for good
Just when we needed her the most

She saved a life by invading a dream
Until uncle was woke and went to search
How she did it from...
