Voice

My voice.
When do I use my voice?
I use it to laugh
Or to cry
Usually to laugh.
And say “I love you,”

Often
I don’t use my voice at all.

Silence.
It’s not always useful.
I tend to use it when I don’t
Feel the least bit
Useful.
Like I have nothing to say.
When I'm too scared
To use My voice.

staying silent when we don't feel useful, yes, I can relate. but then I wonder what is "useful" and why is that so important to feel?
