My light got dimmed

Dimmed by the voices

Voices that say I’m not enough

Voices that kill my already dead confidence

Voices that leave no room for me to voice out

To Voice out my train of thoughts

To Voice out my matters of the heart

Not to be crucified for crying out

Judged for my silence

Ridiculed for having an opinion

My light got dimmed

Gone was my jolly bubbly self

Replaced by someone I prayed never to become

Engulfed with piles of confusion

Where to from here

Is this a stepping stone or the end of something that once was

My light got dimmed

Leaving me conflicted with myself

Do I help my wounded heart

Or do I save my exploding mind

Do I stop the floodgates of tears

Or do I fight the depression creeping in

My light got dimmed

And it can only mean two things revival or death
