Trying to speak out
Desperate to be heard
A voice struggles to be free
A will undeterredHidden in the shadows
Never saw the light
Passion locked away
Done so out of frightBelittling oneself
Thinking others better
Listening to their opinions
Believing ours don't matterWhy put them on a pedestal
And label yourself as a bottom feederWhy try so hard to be like them
When you can be someone even greater
