A Voice
Can you jump, if so how high
Will you stoop. if so how low
Can you dance to the beat of their drum
Can you sing, to get your supper.
Are you a pawn, in a giant chess game
Are you a dice, to be thrown for luck
Do you close your eyes, when it is scary
Do you cover your ears, when you hear the screams.
Stop right now, respect your senses
Start right now, to follow your heart
Challenge right now those who bully
For you are the first voice, to be followed by many.
