Speak Poem by Myra Jefferson

Speak

Rating: 5.0


Your voice is your voice, so speak
Your voice is your voice, small but not weak
Your voice is strong enough to carry a message
Too heavy for a heart to hold
A message too great to remain on your island shore
Precious cargo needed more
Must be allowed to reach its destiny
So remove the anchors and set it free
Quivering and wavering let it go
Across the sea of uncertainty
And let it reach its destiny

Simple yet very finely written. I love the message mainly because I feel like your poem is personally speaking to me. Sort-of like an inspirational talk. You see, I'm a very timid and shy girl and more often, I lack the power to speak my thoughts to everybody. Nice!
