Speaking Out Poem by Dorsey Baker

Speaking out
no more silence
about the abuse about the violence
Speaking out
about the sadness about the pain
and the tears that used to rain
Speaking out
in one voice they unite
out of the darkness
into the light
Speaking out
being heard
every single word
Speaking out
the weak become the strong
Speaking out
about the secrets they have
kept so very long
Speaking out
no fear no doubt
victory is what
its all about!
