The Moment I Could Speak

At age four, I learnt to speak my thoughts;
But I all the time kept silent,
For at home everyone thought me violent.
When other's attention I in vain sought.

Later on, this brought about my reticence;
I chose to speak my sorrow;
Many generations made this habit a pestilence
Which to my dismay made every soul hollow.
