"Silence"

"The complete absence of sound."

Suppressing possibilities required reflection.

In the mouth of madness, suffered from introspection.

Lingering images rented space in my crown.

Essential to the lessons learned that were found.

Naysayers spewing words of hate.

Could not stop me because this is my fate!

Escaped my existence before it was too late; my destiny awaits.--AK

Acrostic
