Hello guys, I want everyone's opinion about this piece my little brother wrote. He is 14 years old and is hearing impaired. I am trying to inspire him to write more poetry. I truly believe he has a gift, and plan on putting him on some kind of a paper for the public to see.


Voices Among Me

I stand there concentrating
To the words I hear
But the voices around me
Are upsetting my ear

I feel troubled inside
I feel the need to scream
Distractions around me
Water down a stream

Hysterical inside
I wanted to flee
The man's voice I can't hear
His mouth movement I see

The poem is good for a 14 year old.

Your going for the whole deal? As in 15 years we'll see the movie of how a deaf boy became the greatest poet of his time?
