censored
my words have been erased
my voice cut short
you're holding me back
i can't breathe
you don't want me to
the taste of freedom
imprinted on my brain
once i've had it
i would lie for it
kill for it
die for it
you can't keep me quiet forever
one day i'll scream for the world to hear
i won't be censored anymore

can't see why a poem on censorship would be censored though...I've been through the feeling by the way and found a variety of sites as a result.

Take plenty of coughdrops...
Enjoyed the spirit of your poem.

Live like it's your last day...
Dance like nobody's watching...
Love like you've never been hurt...

The first three lines are real grabbers!
Yep, i've felt that way, too--not so much with words, but with ideas.  Some just like to leave things the way they are, afraid of change.
