Together in a classroom
I feel everyone’s heartbeat
As we share our points of view
Openly discussing everything
From ketchup to Miley Cyrus
Everything but the key things that matter
Are they important ?
Either way , we seem to freeze .
Afraid of loaded questions
Of being wrong or judged
We are so afraid
I realize
as I sit in the silence
You can feel it
In the heartbeat .
