Speak Out

What thought have you inside your head?
That which you would lay bare before the world.

What words long to be spoken from your lips?
Spilling forth of your knowledge and desire?

Speak out, I say. Speak out.

When prose brings no solution,
and writs have lost their weight,
Speak out, I say. Speak out.

When injustice prevails before for you,
and truth is no longer spoken,
Speak out I say. Speak out.

When freedom is oppressed,
and tyranny is in domain,
Speak out, I say. Speak out.

When liberty is threatened,
and the light has darkened,
Speak out, I say. Speak out.

When your limbs grow weary,
and your heart grows heavy,
Speak out, I say. Speak out.

When you long to be heard,
and your voice is cracked from strain,
Speak out, I say. Speak out.

Why do I keep clicking these?
I'm like the kid that keeps touching the flame.
I'm sure that there will be more real comments here soon.
This is very nice :)

This would be perfect for a rally. As I read it, I could hear the audience joining you in the "Speak out, I say. Speak out." refrain. Really wonderful.
