Give me a pen, and I shall write. But give me a voice and I cannot speak. This pen of mine is: my voice with which to speak, my emotion with which to feel, and my thought with which to dream To others this pen is but a writing tool until one day the ink fades 1. But, what happens to my words, my feelings, and my dreams? Yes, they too fade deep inside me 2 lost into that part of me that wishes 3 so much to be heard.
