Thanks.... for Trusting in Me.
Try taking a step into the world of independence
Commanded by a tiny frightened whisper
To Stop.
Stop
A step is made
And Instead of walking forwards
Backwards it is
The labor to produce all that courage
Was just in vain
Again
Try Making new friends,
Always questioned
Interrogated, until the last little secret is spilled out
Oh, the irony
For all the times was asked to keep a façade about the constant disputes back then
Try speaking your mind
But, obviously, with no success
Not now, and of course never back then
Try to excel, try to make them proud
Just to be encountered by distrust
Walls of distrust that keep on suffocating
Try acting normal
But aware about the eagle eyes
That will fly and hyperbolize your actions
Their words will be believed
Yours dismissed
Try thinking of the future
But to be encountered
With their expectations
Try to disregard their words
Try to act on your own
Try to be yourself
Yet, they HAVE to talk about their motives
And…
The…
Guilty thoughts invade
Encircling your heart,
A whirlwind of thoughts,
Thwarting the minuscule attempts
Of finding liberty
Of finding trust
For your courage has already been crossed out, erased, whited out
Thanks...
