What pleasure abandonment gave
To stop speaking for myself
And listen to all what others had to say.

I keep on asking to myself
When was the last time I preferred to choose
To stand up for all that I thought was good
And stop thinking about what would happen,
only if I could.

I keep on asking to myself
How much more do I have to feel
To convince myself that I really need
And start fulfilling all that I once had wished.

I keep on finding a chance to say
I also have the right to express, if I may
But alas that day is yet to come
When my feelings shall also matter to some. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 178 [topic] => 48 [informant] => sanders [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I like how you wrote this. Some of it worded almost feeble in nature, like a baby, then you seem to answer yourself with a challenge...A call to action perhaps.

If your feelings matter to you, then let them out. Often.

We must also listen to be heard though. ;)
