I Have A Voice,
I Need You To Hear It,
I Know I Am Young,
And My Opinion Does Not Matter,
And You Say When I Am Older,
That I Will Be Heard,
But What If I Need To Be Heard Now..
What If It Does Matter...
Please..
Somebody.
Just.
Listen...

I had a fight with my father and he went on how i'm just a silly little child and that my opinion isn't wanted and that i should keep quiet and do as I am told but i needed to say something and because i didn't a lot of people got hurt because of it.
