Silent Voice - Poem

Silent Voice

Danielle Myre 10.30.2012 

Send those words with your mind, 

Not your voice. 

Urge me to win with your heart, 

Not your sounds. 

Tell me I can do anything, 

Tell me I am more than what I am, 

Tell me again and again; 

But don't use your voice. 

I already  know all these things. 

You always say them.

But now I need silence; 

To use my own courage. 

So don't give up on me, 

Never stop telling me to keep going, 

But let your heart tell me, 

Not your voice. 

Your open heart, 

And silent voice, 

Along with a smile; 

Is what I need most. 

You believe in me, 

And know I can do anything, 

Now I need to believe in myself;

Like I once did.
