Splintered Shards

Silenced, Shy, Soundless.

My voice is mute,

I am speechless.

I feel numb inside out.

Why can’t I be normal,

like everybody else?

Why can’t I be the one in control?

I feel so lonely.

Nobody listens to me.

I am voiceless.

Nobody wants to talk to me.

I am a nobody.

I am sadness,

I am broken,

I am delicate.

Progression, affection, passion.

I will speak up,

to those who want to listen.

I will stand-up,

to those who see me.

Let the light shine brightly,

into the darkness precisely.
