To Be Heard


To be heard is to be Waldo, found at last

To be heard is to be the smallest person in any given room with the most passion of any given person

To be heard is to be a volcano, simmering until the pressure is too much to bear

To be heard is to speak through bold actions rather than meaningless words

To be heard is to live up to the potential that consumes your life

To be heard is to finally profess your love to whomever you know is right for you

To be heard is to stand up to the bully that plagues you day-in and day-out

To be heard is to finally overcome the doubt that has suffocated you for a lifetime

To be heard is to become the voice you’ve always wanted to have

To be heard is to be who you’re meant to be
