Speak! ! Poem by Kelsi Brockway

Crashing trees
and burning fears
They make us shed endless tears
Filling eyes and flowing hate
Speeding torrents
Whirling swirls that drag us down
Pulling, Pulling till we drown
It fills are lungs and floods our mouths
Words never said
Scream within us now.
'I love you, I hate you, I miss you, I care'
All these things that burned to be said
But arrogant pride
Kept it captive inside
Now learn from our fate
Remember to says the words that burn
Never allow arrogant pride
to block what you feel in your heart
From coming out of your mouth.
