As I was, I have become

by @estherstafford

If I just stood Blank expression No words at hand Just a soul alone A broken soul Would you feel compassion Do you see what is whole? Must I create Must I awake the dead Or would this be enough Silently standing Not even a touch When you watch me Do my eyes speak Can you hear me Over your minds own condition Can you feel What is not seen? I spill truth For my soul is not clean I am brave I know you are the same Allow the walls to cave For we all are falling down. We are loudest when we are silent now.
