Every day, I feel like I am fighting an uphill battle, trying to explain something that falls on deaf ears. I understand that others want to be heard, but I am tired of silencing my voice in the process. At this stage in my life, I find it exhausting to constantly stay quiet to accommodate other people’s needs.
I feel like a shackled bird, trying to break free, but being forcefully pulled back into a box. I am a strong person, but I don’t want to minimize myself to let others find their wings. I want to spread my wings and soar through the sky.
I want to be me.
