No Excuses
March 16, 2016
Allow your tongue to thrive
Fight through these ties
define your mind, release
pry open your lips and
just trust, simply speak
Defend your alibi,
Provide an escape,
Prisoners of thought are
Beating at the gates
The moment is fleeting
Silence is so suffocating
You are not a disorder
You’re a whisper, a voice
With the passion to push volumes
Take a chance, make a choice
No more excuses.
