Day of Silence

 

Can you hear their voices?

They sit silence

Supporting their cause

No matter what others may say

 

They show that silence

Can be louder then words

They sit the whole day

Supporting their beliefs

 

They show others

That it’s ok to stand up

For what they believe is right

They give hope to those they support

 

Discrimination

Is just another word to them

In the vast dictionary

This world has created

 

I stand among them

Keeping quiet

As I support my cause

No matter the harassment I get, I stand proud.

I loved this. Potent words and even more potent emotion. Enjoyed.

I truly like the form your poem takes, the words and phrases you use - ' ... they sit silence, supporting their cause...'

If this is the opinion you hold, I agree with it; sometimes saying nothing makes a great deal of noise. Better 'sit silence' than not sit at all.

This is the first of your poems i've read... will continue the adventure as of now..
