Do we hear the sounds that are our life
Are they happy sounds, loud and clear 
or muffled and distant
Do we recognized them as our own
or are they difficult to distinguish from others
Are they angry and maddening
or soft and subtle
Are they melodic or mundane
Do they project 
or are they a whisper
Are they constant
or do they skip a beat
would anyone else want to hear them
or 
are they better left in isolation
