It's ok if in looking out at the world you cannot find words worth sharing.

It's ok if the grief and sadness and rage you feel form a three chord strand that twists around you and constricts your speech.

It's ok it you can only ball your fist, beat your chest, and let the river of tears flowing down your face fill your open mouth causing you to become familiar with the taste your own heartache.

The Earth and her people are hurting and your silence, emotions, and tears are evidence that you are bearing witness to their pain.

It's ok to not be ok.

It's ok to not be ok.

It's ok to not be ok.

Because what you are witnessing is wrong and needs to change.
