Raise Your Voice Poem by Jon M. Nelson

Dreams may be shattered, and hearts are broken,
Because sometimes you won't have a choice.
Your thoughts and words should never go unspoken,
As long as you're willing to raise your voice.

Always ensure that your voice is heard,
Don't let it become just background noise.
Be confident as you choose your words,
And be proud as you raise your voice.

Some time's it is difficult to speak your mind,
But then you will just want to rejoice.
You might shine the light for those who are blind,
When all you had to was just raise your voice.

Don't become just another face in the crowd,
Always present yourself with the greatest poise.
Make sure thoughts are shared aloud,
As you effortlessly raise your voice.
