Here's a Poem

 I recently discovered this poem (written 5-10 years ago) and wanted to share. 

I wanted to speak the truth

Because I couldn't hold it in 

Wanted to speak the truth

but fear would always win.

I wanted to be real 

And let my feelings known,

I wanted to be heard

And let the truth be shown.

But fear always got in the way

Holding me back 

From what I wished to say.

Until the day 

I saw the light 

And discovered what was wrong 

And what was right.

I had to let the truth unfurl 

No matter the anger and insults they'd hurl.

It was worth it to speak 

It was worth it to reveal 

Every bit of my heart 

Uncensored, raw, real

It felt exhilirating 

I felt free as a bird 

But most importantly of all, 

I meant every last word.

So go speak your heart

And go speak your mind 

So that Life can open up,

And your true heart you will find.
