A voice, a message.
Together
we take a trauma silenced and speak up
we take a truth abused and honour it
we take a reality stolen and own it
we take the person erased and give them a voice.
We use our voices, speak up and say, 'I See and I choose to take back my sense of self, my freedom, my autonomy, my human rights and my life'.
If you would like to add an 'eye' and 'your message', please go to our twitter feed.
I See
You took his life lines and severed them.
Assaulted his memories and destroyed them.
Stole his purpose and crushed it.

I See
Everyone saying the same things even though they are not true?
Why is this happening all over the world?
Will the world be a place worth living in when I leave uni?

I See
Your words were empty and your promises false.
You put me on a pedestal and clapped.
Then you took my self worth and crushed it.
Ordered me to get vaccinated.
I no longer have a livelihood

I See
The fear in me nana's eyes, she remembers a time gone by when power was abused.
The worry in me dad's voice, as the business struggles.
The hope when I look in the mirror, because I believe the people will win this battle.

I See
By stealth your words stole my peace of heart.
Your form of protection took ownership of my life.
Your rules for me to follow, and you to break.
Your construct of fear created invisible chains.
Bars of despair and hopelessness formed around me.
Isolated, I sat alone.

I See
The abusive situation we currently face: say No to being abused, come from our shared humanity, and choose from a place of compassion and mutual respect how we want to live our own lives.

I See
No kindness and fake care.
You make me keep my friends at a distance.
You make me hide my face.
You forbid my hugs for my Nana.
I can't see when it will end.

I See
Young and old.
I hear accents from all over the world.
I feel the strength of the human spirit, as we walk in protest side by side, and say, 'No to vaccine mandates'.
