Since when did speaking with conviction
for your own personal opinion
become taboo?
Since when did eluding the real questions
with avoidance and subject change
become status quo?
Since when did we all become so fearful
of expressing our own thoughts and feelings?
Since when did protective lies
become more acceptable
than the painful truth?
Since when would we rather hurt
over the unsaid
than find relief in speaking our mind?
Since when did ignoring the problem
overcome addressing the solution
Since when did honesty fade into oblivion
and deception become common place?
Dawning a faux pas age where what is right
lies at our fingertips
yet we are unwilling to free our grasp on what is wrong.
While the masses dumbfoundedly wonder
why the meaning escapes them.
