Use Your Voice

Thu, 12/08/2016 - 22:17 -- Kierah_

use your voice they said.

speak up she said.

I can't hear you they all said.

She's too quiet a girl said.

She looked them in the eyes and smirked.

She stood tall and stayed quiet.

She used her voice only when she felt it was necessary.

She had once learned that everything didn't cause for a response.

And there on her precious voice was used  

the right time, when is there ever a right time

at the right moment, will the hear that I know how to speak up

will  a shy girl ever be heard when she does speak

and at the right time.

Society wants to hear my voice ,but I will forever speak as I please.
