My Thoughts Have A Voice
Thoughts were unreachable
No one could hear me
I could not be heard
"Don't speak!" my mind would say
"It's not worth it."
"There's no point." it would tell me
No opinions, no thoughts, no options, nor ideas
Shut,
completely away from others
My mind trapped,
In secret,
Only for me to know
and no one else to listen
No voice needed nor necessary
This was how I thought
Lonely this place was
Exhausted,
I wanted out
I begged for an out
away from these thoughts which consumed
"Just get me out!" I cry
Finally, it changed
My thoughts,
they changed
and were not the same
I needed no permission for the escape I desired
Just courage,
courage to speak up,
to share my opinions
The courage to have a voice
It is a choice to have company in your thoughts
It is a gift to not be alone,
consumed in only your mind
This was my own epiphany
to get out, talk, explore other's minds
Freedom,
I am a person with a mind
Who has a mouth
Worthy of speaking to
and dreams worthy of sharing
I am reachable
and I now can be heard
