"Our Voice"

by Terraal - Taurus

When we were young, we thought we could fly.
Age has tied us to the ground, you and I.
People bag for food, with sadness in their eyes.
We just walk on by, ignore their child’s cries.

We need to treat each other with integrity.
When we live in this harsh reality.
For even though we are left without a choice.
We’ll always have poetry, our strongest voice.

Terraal

Reason for writing:

    Always remember that words can speak what you feel.  You can prevent losing control of yourself if you write your feelings down before addressing the situation.
