Speak to me
Emerson & Thoreau
Speak to me
Let me be alone with the stars
I am me, no imitation
Obeying my inner voice,
it felt as though his words danced in my ear
his wit sparked interest and showed no fear
always in awe, i would listen without doubt
that my own thoughts soon would sprout
every moment a new subject would brighten
I'm no Maya Angelou, Mark Twain, or Emerson.
I don't yet know my dearest complaints, intents, or direction.
I've never been hurt so bad that I've been deeply pained,
I have, however, seen enough to know that we need change.
