He listened to her today
For the first time she thought
The raindrops on the window
Forming their own staccato beat
He listened as she packed her things
Oblivious children arguing downstairs
His life flashes before his eyes
He listens to her move around
Thinking about the times he didn’t hear
Or didn’t try to listen
As she told him about her day
Or what had gone right or wrong at work
He listens now as she drives away
Taking with her all that he is
One Single Impression
