Silence mistaken for unintelligent thoughts. Inability to voice an opinion must be lack of one. How do you undo years of protection?
The life raft of self-reflection and silent contemplation still afloat,
Will I drown if I jump, or will I find water deep enough to stand?  And if I do, how far will I be able to walk?
You can't walk very far crawling
And you can't swim if you can't stand
And I wonder if the life jacket you're holding is my size
