It takes courage to express troubling thoughts
Fear is the cause of keeping it inside
There is strength behind the voice that cries out
The proof is the beautiful poems written
I perceived youthfulness from Broken Kitten
Don’t suffer in silence if you are in pain
It may be difficult to get on that train
It’s easier to sleep feels like an escape
Once you awake what do you do?
The mind is one powerful instrument
But the spirit has superiority
Therefore, bring the instructions under subjection
Don’t say “be quiet” it only turns the volume low
Command the voices to be silent!
Remember the strongest of the two is where your heart lies
Those lying utterances kiss them goodbye
