Essays of Complaints

What do I have when you take away my words?

What do I do, when the only way I know how to express myself is words, and you say I can't use them?

How do I talk?

How do I form syllables? What does the spoken word mean?

Does it mean the same thing as these solid-looking things on paper I've always taken for granted?

What is my voice? Where does it come from? Is it stronger than these scraps I have managed to piece together?

Will people hear me then, if I use my voice?

Will you hear me?
