If only I had the power to cause a
permanent
Change in the way every one is
treated.
If only I could be more than just a
silent whisper,
More than just a blot of ink upon a
page.
If only there were worlds bowing down
to my words
Understanding their wrongs and
bringing about
That change that would wipe a million
tears,
Cause the wind to blow with the sighs
of relief
And tremble in the explosion of
world-wide cheers.
If only...
But, I am just a silent whisper,
A single scratch of ink on paper,
A helpless observer in a mighty plot,
A mere puppet with many-a-puppeteer,
A ragdoll in the corner, collecting
dust...
Yet!
Yet I hold onto that melting
candle-wax,
That single flickering flame of hope,
Like a twinkling star shut away in
the dark,
A lengthy legend of a tale untold,
A voice unheard in the multitude of
roars.
