Please Listen.

When i ask you to listen to me
And you start giving me advice,
You have not done what i asked.

When i ask you to listen to me
And you begin to tell me why
I shouldnt feel this way,
You are trampling on my feelings.

When i ask you to listen to me
And you feel you have to do something
To solve my problem,
You have failed me.

Strange as it may seem.

Listen!
All i ask is that you listen,
Dont talk or do - just hear me.
