Poems
Mar 2018
Simple
They told me to speak
I told them I couldn't
and so I wrote.
They told me to scream louder
I told them I wouldn't
I'd rather let my words cut deeper.
They told me I wouldn't fit in
I told them it was fine.
Cause I preferred keeping it real
They asked me about language
I told them I spoke only one:
Art
At times muteness isn't just biological but unlike the real disease this one has an actual medicine: poetry, art
