Words form on a page
as I write out my emotions.
Oh, why can't they form
so eloquently so
on my lips instead.
Like an invisible emotional shield it covers my mouth.

I got to speak.
To express.
But nothing comes out.

Stuck in my head.
My voice box clasped shut.
Word please!
Please don't remain trapped.
To speak as I wish.
Only to stop in my tracks.

My voice is unheard.
Unheard my words remain.

Pen to paper
it all flows out.
Words become sentences.
Sentences become expressions.
Yet, Still.
My voice is unheard.
