To find my voice 

It isn’t as easy as it may sound

For still I cannot identify

I have yet to uncover my true voice 

I look and look but the more I do, I

suffocate in my own silence

It’s like a slow soft pain

Knowing you cannot speak up for anything 

You may not understand, for you may have your’s

You may not get the feeling of trying to speak

Just what feels like nothing comes out 

When I am alone 

Whatever I want can become true 

Yet once the crowd comes

I am as talkative as a mute mouse 

I am trying oh so hard to communicate

To be able to verbalize my opinion like others can 

But of so far it seems oh so useless

Maybe one day I will locate my voice

Maybe it’ll come to me and present itself

But it seems not today 

And it seems not soon…
