Just Let Me Speak.
I speak, but I am not heard.
Why dare I utter another word?
I watch, but I am never asked to play.
Why waste my breath when no one listens to what I have to say?
I listen, but never respond.
Why must everybody choose to abscond?
It is MY time to dazzle.
It is MY time to glisten.
It’s my time to speak;
I plead, please listen.
I am emerging from the shadows;
From the shadows of uncertainty.
I am breaking through the barrier
Of your absurdity.
My stem will grow and I’ll try, try, try,
Until my beautiful petals finally touch the sky.
I will stand tall and stand proud,
Until the sun begins to shine through the clouds.
