I am VOICE


I am 

Voice for the voiceless.

To those who are abused, negected,

cut or torn in any fastion.

I once felt that pain.

A dry breath calls out "No more!"

Words of freedom do not exist

As if evaporated by the tears. 

I use those muffled screams 

Those cries for help

I know that might does not make right.

Who are those who say we must not stand

For what is right, but unpopular,

True, but hidden

Pushed away to the catacomes .

My words have broken free few,

Aid is needed. 

You are needed.
