•Freedom of Speech•

Freedom of speech

They said we had the right to talk,
They said we had the right to be heard.

But how?

Getting the chance to talk is rare for me.
Put me on a stage and yet the crowd wouldn't even spare a glance.

Even when people say they did listen,
they're just lies.

None of them listens to understand, they only listen to reply.

Where is the right we were promised?

The freedom to talk?

Why should I even talk when nobody listens?

I might as well be silent so i don't waste my voice.

After all,

We do have the freedom to choose.

So i chose to be silent...
