Speak Out

Ajax (he/xe)

“Why won’t you speak out?”

Their condescending mouths hiss

Well why do you think?

All you speak is bullshit

I’ve tried, I try, 

All it does is make me cry

I try to voice how I feel,

But you cold eyes tear me apart,

Like steel

My thoughts are shut down, 

Can’t get in a single word,

Still you say I’m the problem,

Now that’s what’s absurd

When I talk all it causes is trouble

This family has fallen, 

Just pieces of rubble

    'I try to voice how I feel,
    But *your cold eyes tear me apart,'
    reminds me of Pink's, 'family portrait'
    ('misunderstood'
    is an overwhelming Island
    to be stranded on, all alone)
    stay strong!
    thanks for sharing dear poet
