another poem? where is this coming from?
"My voice"
My hands have
reached and grabbed and pulled with all their might.
My eyes have
seen it all through darkness and through light.
My feet have
walked throughout the shadows with no fear.
My ears have
heard the songs that taught them how to hear.
My body's
yearning for complexion and for youth.
My mind's not
searching for the answers, but the truth.
My heart has
trouble finding willingness to live.
My soul will
give up everything it has to give.
What have I
done to make myself turn out this way?
Have I said
everything that I could truly say?
How can I
find the strength to make a simple choice?
I'll look up
high into the sky and use my voice.
