If you can hear my voice, speak up please


If you can hear my voice,

Speak up please,

 

Quivering in the shadows,

Frightened of presumptions and

Prejudice,

I shut my voice to hinder

Judgment.

I am silent for

The sole reason

That the world is cruel.

My voice extinguished 

by the truculent flames of injustice.

So when I speak again

hear my voice.

For I will be shouting from the 

Mountains that I am free.

Free from negligence, inequity, and

Grievances of all the likes.

Hear my voice because this will be the sound of freedom.
