A slave's speech...

With their lips they need not say nothing...for they cursed me with their eyes, beat me with their hands, kicked me with their feet, and raped me with their soul...If they were to open their mouth, there'd be no job for it...for their actions have taken everything of me...I have nothing left but a hint of hope, faith, and prayer...but now I feel as though they have left me astray too...They say stand, but how can I stand when my legs have failed me...then the smart ones say since I'm already down, then I'm in the position to pray, but how can I pray when my soul and mind has been tampered with...I know not my needs anymore...I don't want to be a survivor...wouldn't it be the smarter to just quit...to just let myself go...to take my own life...cause it's been taken away from me anyway...then the religious ones say Imma go to hell if I do that...is hell not on earth??? My faith is becoming smaller than a mustard seed...so what do I do now...my mountains are too big and my faith is too small...I pray God please take me away...and now he answer's me not...can't hear his voice either...has he become one of the tight-lipped people too???...
What have I done to myself???
They have cursed me with their eyes, beat me with their hands, kicked me with their feet, and raped me with their soul...but I'm still here...that's proof enough that God is not tight-lipped...that's proof enough that I can not be defeated...it's impossible...Let them keep their mouth closed, cause with my lips I bear power...I can't take my own life because it's not mine to take...gave my life to God a long time ago...my legs have failed me, but my knees have not...my mind and soul has been tampered with, but my moans have not...that's the best way to pray...enemies can't decipher my tongue...My faith has become small, but nonetheless, I have faith and faith grows...I can't hear God's voice anymore because his voice has become mine...I know not my own needs, but God knows me better than I do...
I am a slave
This is my speech
My slave master is me...
Set me free...
