You've Now Divided It
By stepping forward,
You have now divided it.
Do not turn back now-
The silence doesn’t own you.
Speak up and reach out
And those who want to evolve,
They will come join you.
Half will walk to you, others won’t.
Welcome all the brave
Into your warm, open arms.
Now rise up together.
Let the mindsets of today
Stay behind and rot.
Abandon the silent crowd.
Your words have power
Words of those standing with you
Can change society.
Silence will deteriorate.
Today you will progress.
The silence doesn’t own you,
You’ve divided it.
You have now divided it.
Do not turn back now-
The silence doesn’t own you.
Speak up and reach out
And those who want to evolve,
They will come join you.
Half will walk to you, others won’t.
Welcome all the brave
Into your warm, open arms.
Now rise up together.
Let the mindsets of today
Stay behind and rot.
Abandon the silent crowd.
Your words have power
Words of those standing with you
Can change society.
Silence will deteriorate.
Today you will progress.
The silence doesn’t own you,
You’ve divided it.

Haha, I don't know what it is about my third period that just inspires me (Some of my best writing comes from stuff in there/banter I hear). Thank you very much for the kind comment.

Lots of strength in this piece ava, words expressed do have such great power. We often must leave the past behind and take great strides to grow and move forward. I personally agree that having the support of others can aid such growth- there is great power in community =) This community on DU has personally saved me time and again, hopefully you find your own niche here too!
PS- I've written so much poetry while in class or at work... such a good use of my educator's or employer's time =) lol... hey, when poetic flow strikes, don't deny it!

I agree with that, when you’re inspired you should go ahead and do something with it. Use the spark to ignite the flame...thats a saying, right? Welp, I just said it. Anyways, thank you so much and I really do hope to be part of a community on DU
