Poem For the Day of Silence
When you ask me to speak up in class,
You may not realize that I have my reasons for staying silent.
When you tell me not to be a “crybaby”,
You may not realize that I have my reasons for crying.
When you tell me that my dreams are stupid,
You may not realize that I have my dreams for a reason.
When you tell me to shut up
You may not realize that I already have
Because I am silenced
Silenced by you.
