Truth
I have come to realize
When I speak out about
The injustices of the world,
I become silenced.
When I was talking about
The false ideologies and notions
Of equality in our nation, my
Older brother interrupted me
- A true story-
And asked if that was my way
Of coming out and my thoughts
And opinions no longer mattered.
It seems like only those who are fighting
For equality are the oppressed while
The privileged sit on the ones who
Are tricked into believing they
Are free. But Martin Luther King Jr
Said it best, "no one is free until
We all are free."
