Breaking Silence
Shush. Thats all I hear anymore. You're told to express yourself. But when you do it's. SHUSH!!! They tell you to shut up. To be quiet. To be silent on a level. To were they never hear you. Its something you need to do. Talking is. It helps you with things. It makes the world go round. Whether its important or not. All you get told anymore is to just. SHUT UP!!! Thats all you hear. The popular kids. Can say anything they want. And everyone listens. But people like me. They seem to have no power. You may have life saving information. Or something that means the world to you. But noone seems to be willing to listen to you. So yah know what? It's my turn. I'm going to speak my mind. I'm going to let you know what I think. And I'm gonna say it loud. You wanna know something else? It's your turn to. It's your turn to finally just shut up. And let me speak. | Mirrors in the Darkness
Lights. They are a source of light and hope. They keep this world turning. For in darkness we are forever lost. We are all lights in this world. Figurative or not. Some are covered by a dark sheet. Seeing their own greatness. While others see only rudeness and predjudice. Others leave nothing unseen. They shine for all others to see. And others give light in return. They are helped with much for all their givings. But some cannot find a room. Where the light is abundant. For no matter how much light and hope they provide. None is seen coming in return. I used to share my life with someone. And I can still see her faint glow from a distance away. But it does me little good. It only provides the hope that I will see her again soon again. But it provides a small amount to the larger quantity that is needed to sustain life. Everywhere I go. I shine for all I'm worth. And I know people see me. And to not sound haughty. But a bright light attracts attention. I have been seen as well as aknowledged. But noone will shine their light in return. They all direct theirs towards other people. They all seem so happy. With the amount of light bouncing around them. It almost makes me laugh. It really is funny though. To see how empitent they can be. The think that no one sees. What they keep hidden on the inside. The good they shine out in light. But the bad they keep hidden in the dark. But that is a grave mistake that all have made. For as one concealed to the darkness. As the light I shine is ignored. I illuminate the hidden. I see in people things no one else can. But it does me no good. Because I illuminate only darkness with nothing there to reflect back. Theres a light that sits in the back of my head. But i think what with no energy to spend now. My lights have begun to grow dim. |
