Telling me not to speak my mind
        is like telling a star
        not to shine

Giving me a pen and telling me not to write
        is like giving a bird wings
        and telling it
        not to fly

Telling me to keep my dreams a secret
        is like telling a chick
        not to hatch
        from its shell

My art is meant to be
        on display
Asking me hide it
        is like asking the sun
        to hide in the sky
