Silence
S
Softly it falls, this blanket of quiet,
Shrouding the heart in a tender, bittersweet embrace.
Silence speaks where words falter,
Subtle echoes of all thatβs left unsaid,
Sinking deep into the soul,
Stirring emotions long buried beneath the noise.
I
In the stillness, memories awaken,
Intense and vivid, like ghosts from the past.
Invisible tears trace the edges of a smile,
Interwoven with the laughter and the pain.
In this quiet, there is both comfort and sorrow,
Infusing the heart with a bittersweet ache.
L
Lost in the hush, the mind wanders,
Lingered too long on words that were never spoken.
Love lingers here, in the spaces between breaths,
Laced with regret for moments that slipped away.
Longing fills the void left by what was,
Leaving the heart to find peace in the silence.
E
Every pause holds a story untold,
Emotions simmering just beneath the surface.
Echoes of love, of loss, of hope,
Entwined in the quiet, woven into the night.
Endless moments of reflection and yearning,
Each one a step closer to understanding, to letting go.
N
Nights are the hardest, when the silence is loudest,
Nestled in the dark, where the heart finds no escape.
Nothing but the sound of a breaking heart,
Nurtured by memories that refuse to fade.
Never have words felt so heavy, so distant,
Now they are just whispers in the wind.
C
Caught in this silence, there is a fragile beauty,
Cradling the heart with a gentle hand.
Calm in the chaos, a quiet storm within,
Creating space for healing, for growth, for grace.
Courage is found in the stillness,
Carrying the heart through the pain, through the night.
E
Eventually, silence becomes a friend,
Easing the ache with its soothing touch.
Every wound begins to heal in the quiet,
Embracing the peace that comes with time.
Eternal is the night, but so is the dawn,
Emerging from the silence with a heart renewed.
