Sounds cliche to my ears.
Someone who was once silent was taught to speak their mind. Having more of a laser focus on that aspect of the poem would allow the story to feel more connected.
The poem, for me, is in these lines:
Voiceless
I came to you
secrets spilled
shame released
Voice found ....(this needs more depth)
In my opinion, a lot of lines do not hold a solid direction, and can be trimmed.
.........
Hope I could help! Thanks for posting.
