They try to drown me out

They shout me down

They try and mock me,

For speaking up

For things that matter,

I stand up for the poor

They say it’s their own fault,

I stand up for nature

I am called a tree hugger,

I stand up for peace

That say that I am weak,

They say these thing

While shouting at me,

Because you see

The more loudly

And more aggressively,

The appear to me,

They figure will intimidate

And quieten me down,

They figure I will chose

To no longer speak,

About these things

So they think they win,

It when I write it down

Then their tactic no longer works,

So they choose to troll

Which is beyond my control,

But at least my message

Still gets out and gets heard,

And though they still

Find ways to try and hurt,

Me in anyway that they can,

To shut me up,

To shut me down,

It won’t work,

I just keep going,

Because my work

And my thoughts,

Are all I have,

And they’re based in kindness,

And they’re rooted in love,

And so I will not stop.
