I'll be a voice

I'll be a voice

A Poem by dillonjensen
"

When adversity hits you, stand firm.

"
For the ones who speak, only to not be heard.
For the ones who seek, but never find.
For the ones going crazy, losing their mind.
For the ones who give, but seemingly never get.
For the ones who once loved, but now find no reason to get back up.
For the ones under pressure, like you're living under a rock.
For those who have made a mistake, and are now better because of it.
For those who are mistreated constantly, but still find reasons to smile.
For those who cannot hear, but see the wrongs of man and woman.
For those who cannot speak, but hear and see the devilish temptations.
For the ones who cannot see, but only hear they are a disease.
For the ones with an illness, who are treated like lesser humans.
For the ones ostracized and condemned, only for the color of their skin.
For those that choose to be different, just to prove a point.
And for those people who are always there, the experts of the fall. Only to be knocked down, time after time.

For all of those people, I will be a voice.
