Voiceless


Brushing own opinion aside
Casting own voice away
Dragged by others’ decision
Am I voiceless?

Too caring?
Too concern?
Living in accordance to others’ voice
Am I voiceless?

Unwilling to hurt others’ feelings
But I am hurting inside
Alive but voiceless
Losing myself
Loneliness rule

Voicing out
Only to be rejected
Only to be misunderstood
Loneliness rule

Taken for granted?
Taken advantaged?
Loneliness rule
Am I voiceless?

Am I voiceless . . . ?
Are my opinions worthless?
Does ………
……. anybody
……………….. care?

  1. This really, truly, speaks to my heart. Thank you!

    I am so glad you commented today…I have no idea how you got unfollowed. I think I will choose to blame my iPhone because it is the source of all things evil in my life. It hates me. 🙂 Well, refollowed, and very happy about it.

    Oh, and by the way…..I care!! 🙂 Hugs!

  2. Yoshiko, this is where I am now…my heart is broken…and I am trying to find my way again…I think I allowed myself into a relationship where I did give “too much”…and lost myself…a friend told me, “equanimity.” I have begun to study Buddhism a few years ago…and I recalled that word…equanimity. I lost my sense of balance…balance in giving and receiving. Now I have to move forward out of my sorrow…and it is so painfully difficult…

    • Dear Jane, I empathize with how you feel. Me too give in too much in my relationship with my families and clients until I go through sense of depression and sick of everything. We can learn together how to cope with our sense of imbalance in our giving. You can email me at zyoshiko@rocketmail.com if you need confidant. I can understand. Yoshiko

  3. Lovely poem, Yoshiko. It’s a gift when our words and our heart are truly heard. It’s robbery when the other person does not listen but expects us to hear them.

    Blessings ~ Wendy ❀
