Sometimes I wonder
How many ideas
are lost
with the souls of
the keeper
just because he was too scared
to share
or because his companion was
too busy to listen,
as he would nod anyways

what kind of world
would this be
if fear didn’t stop us
from sharing what’s in our heads

Imagine all of the ideas and thoughts that other people have that they never share, that just are lost because we are too scared to share them.. Imagine how many ideas could have changed the world if only we didn't hold back
