Simply turn away.

I was sick of people silencing me so I wrote this.

By Emma R. Johnson

Would you be happy if I bit my own tongue?
You wish to silence me and bind me down.
Should you be happy with the silence of my voice,
Then yours in turn should be taken as well.
If I should silence my voice, if I should keep my thoughts,
Then all others should hide as well.
And if we all hid our thoughts,
And if we all hid our voice,
This world would no longer be should we all cease to speak.
If I should speak of things that serve as good,
Reminders of our lost morals.
Then what harm shall come from the words I say?
Should you disagree, Simply turn away.
