Make a peep
Dare to squeak
Jumpstart the mumble
Participate in the yammer
Start the chatter
Hone your inner gabber
Whether you prefer
to blab the yakety-yak
or pop off a shout
Take a chance
and verbalize your stance
Articulate your view
Express your attitude
Whether a whisper
Or a scream
State your view
and spill your beans
Vocalize your piece
Share your assertion
State your murmur
Publicize your sound
Give your spiel
Expatiate your utter
Deliver your address
Chew about your known
Voice your lip
Assert your declaration
But wait dear one
There is more
More within you
More than what rolls around in your head
More than the familiar
More that speaks the truth
of who you are
If you dare to hear it
first, you must pause
Breathe deep
and strong
Tap into the courage
and pause
Hearing your heart
is no small task
Breathe deep
and strong
Tap into the courage
and pause
Allow its sound inside you
Invite it to the table
Let it spill over your known
Breathe deep
and strong
Tap into the courage
and pause
Make room for its beat
and discern
for yourself
when your heart is
what needs to speak
