Silenced
Unable to speak for myself
My melodic sound censored
Turned off with your decisions
Never ask me for my opinion
Mine doesn’t matter, does it?
The only opinion of importance was yours
Which silently communicated my importance
I was never a consideration
A mere courteous conversation was not even a thought
It was only ever about you
So while my voice was silenced,
Your resolve was shouting loud and clear to me
I was never in the care of someone who respected me
The loathing you have for me
The need to control me
The fear of me –
As you should be
Because if you were to allow me to speak,
You would have to endure my wrath
A wrath that would be warranted and justifiable
So silence me and run away
You have much to fear
Because my scream will be colossal
Allowing me to move mountains and cut valleys
Bringing you to your knees
All while begging for mercy
Knowing I hold all the power
Enjoy my silence while you can
Don’t dare remove my muzzle
