To Express or Not To Express

Expression
Some have the freedom to express
Yet words fail them
People fail them
Others have words
The audience is available
Yet the freedom is in bondage
Bondage by society norms
Bondage by law and decree
Bondage because we do not know how
Bondage as our expression will be scorned
Overwhelming joy, scorned when expressed
Sadness and deep depression scorned when expressed
Differing opinions persecuted and ambushed
Bondage from fear of the unknown
Expression must have an audience for one to truly express
Freedom to express can only be truly achieved
When those seeking to express have an audience open to listen
An audience that can listen
To words expressed
To words mimed
To the eyes glittering with joy
To the eyes glittering with deep sorrow
To a body in motion
To a body standing still
Grant me audience
That I may express myself
