Poem 31. WHY?A Chapter by Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)some people are so criticalWhy did I smile in hope and joy The time I speak my mind Only to find that happiness Could end at any time?
I always speak my mind, my heart But I need to control The words to say, I have to choose So as not to injure.
I spoke, you heard. I joked, you laughed. I cried, you also wept. The words I said were from my heart The secret I can’t keep.
I shared, you heard, I joked, you laughed But some of you alleged I cried, you wept, some of you frowned And thought of me as strange.
Why should I run when there’s a chance To walk with dignity? Why should I hide when there’s a way To show the real me?
Why should I keep on entering, Does this place fit for me? Should I stay or should go back To place where I should be? *** And now I know after I've made a deep apprehension I have to stay and be stronger And live with that reason... © 2013 Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)Author's Note
