"I Do Not Need Hearing" I love the way you keep me close, I'm loved and oh so safe. I can't hear sweet "I Love Yous" but I see them in your face. I cannot hear the jingling bells, they faded long ago. My hearing left me before, before you'd ever know. But hearing's not important, with a fur-parent like you. You've taught me ways to understand, so many things you do. So now, I don't need hearing, when I see your happy tears. I know they say "I love you" so, resounding in my ears.
