'Speak Your Mind' Poem by Jonathan Maldonado

'Speak Your Mind'

Rating: 5.0


Can I speak my mind?
Beyond its deepest thoughts,
past the grandest canyons imagination can construct.
Over the tallest of volcanoes about to erupt.
Rain down!
Covering the valley in a blanket of sulfuric memories and should haves' and what ifs' and oppurtunities neglected-
Can I speak my mind?
Open up a window to a hurricane, hear the root of me.
Beyond the tranquility that meets the eye,
seek for truth and find what lies in me;
what reflects and what I hide in me.
Connect the dots inside my head and see a priceless work of art,   a timeless novel at the start, a symphony of highs and lows-
Can I speak my mind?
A matrix with no 'one' but I.
A riddle unsolved,
a maze with truth at its center.
Trains of thought, trained or taught, ride along the tracks of me-
Can I speak my mind?
A rodent in the lab set free,
can you comprehend?
Tell me who I am again,
do you understand?
I am you and you are me!
Each of us, lost in the sea of us.
Hoping that the shore will tell us more when it finds us washed up on the sand of times that remind us-
Speak your mind.
