Sitting here in utter silence, I close my eyes.

Idol, my other senses amplify.

Learning to be in this stillness.

Echoes of my heart beating in the,

Nothingness of silence.

Calm, cool breaths I,

Eventually, succumb to peacefulness.

Acrostic

About the Creator

Steffany Pope

Dealing with mental health problems has been hard. I've lived my whole life believing that no one understood me. I realized, my mind is not for others to understand; but for my edification of self awareness. So, I write to understand me.
