Muted

The tables have turned

The movement is done

The words were said

They are laid to rest

Not to be heard of again

The move is forward

The time is now

It is beyond what it should have been

Let it go, leave it there

They will never be able to undo

How they made you feel

But they are gone now

Your voice matters

Your life matters

You are important in this world

You do not need to be silent anymore

You do not need to retreat

Or hide when you hear them coming

They are out of your life now

Pick up what is left and move on

This is your life now

Your voice matters

Your silence matters

To you, and to only you

Use what time you have left

to fight for what you choose

or just walk away

The fight does not need to be

It can be left on the table

For someone else to pick up

You do not need to fight for all of them anymore

Fight for you and what is important now

Fight for what you feel is within your influence

Let the rest go

They do not get to hear you anymore

They do not get to experience you anymore

They left you broken and kicked down

They placed you there

But it is not where you will remain

You are not muted anymore

They do not have that power over you

Bring freedom and life to your voice

Unmute yourself.
