My Fight Song

 

Hush, shhh, do you hear that? It’s the sound of so many people having their lips sewn shut by the cruelty of society. Yes whilst even the smallest of voices can destroy mountains, imagine what even the smallest of pens can write?

 

 

Edgar Allen Poe, Phillis Wheatley, XXXtentacion, all had their lips sewn shut before they could truly sing their most harmonious of songs. 

 

My message is simple and goes out from the smallest of pebbles to that one tall transexual out there who’s thinking of taking their life right now.
