We Will Not Be Silenced – Patricia Harris

Alt Text:

In the world where

Being meek is seen

As the good thing,

Often the ignorant

Thinks it means

We should be seen

And not heard.

Our voice is part

Of who we are meant to be.

We will not be silenced,

We will continue to live free.

Meekness has its place

And in this life

All have a right

To be what

They want to be.

But forced meekness

Is just another erasure

Of truth in a society

Built on lies.
