Perhaps

To remember is to feel touched.

Then is forgetting to be unaffected?

     Possibly

To speak up is to be empowered.

Then why is my speech deflected?

     Maybe

Am I straying from my place?

Am I unreasonable and loud?

     Might

Or is my fear a symptom of my plight?

Is the nature of my questions indication enough?

     Perhaps

These questions flood my mind

Washing over me

My confidence lost to the current

My identity swept away by the tide

My stagnation is by design

My loss for words buys them time

I lose my voice and with it

I lose my power.
