i have no voice amidst the secrets and the whispering in this place no way to defend myself to the accusations charged behind my back i would scream if they'd hear me but my words aren't clear in their ears every word i say every move i make is contorted and construed i can't convey my feelings and beliefs in a language they understand they cut and paste the clips and phrases they grasp and ignore what is in the spaces between the real meaning gets lost and they don't want to find it and won't let me explain they form their opinions then close their minds to the truth i'm surrounded by stone that can't be altered what is right and true cannot permeate the walls they've set up around their misguided beliefs they just continue down that path of falsehoods and lies spreading their poison to all that begin to see the truth
Reason for writing:
lots of misunderstood feelings about me, by other people, and they believed what everyone said without even asking me. e-mail me with comments if you'd like.
