Embracing the Power and Guidance of Inner Voices

Silence can be a powerful thing,

A moment of stillness, a time to reflect.

But sometimes, in the quiet of the night,

Voices echo, and memories resurrect.

Whispers in the darkness, like ghosts in the air,

The past comes back, with a haunting stare.

Reminding us of what we used to be,

A reflection of our own history.

But what about those voices that we can't hear?

The ones that are muted, the ones we fear.

The ones that are silenced, and never heard,

The ones that are lost, in the depths of the word.

Voices in the silence, the ones we ignore,

The ones that are silenced, forevermore.

The ones that are buried, deep in the earth,

The ones that are hidden, for what they are worth.

The voices of the oppressed, the voices of the weak,

The voices of the forgotten, the ones we never seek.

The voices of the silenced, the ones we never hear,

The ones that are lost, in the shadows of fear.

Their stories go untold, their voices unheard,

Their struggles are ignored, their pain undeterred.

Their voices are a reminder, of what we've lost,

The humanity we've forgotten, at what cost?

We must listen to their stories, we must hear their cries,

We must let their voices be heard, before another one dies.

For in the voices of the silenced, there is power and truth,

The courage to stand up, and fight for what is due.

Their stories may be painful, but they must be told,

For in the telling, their truths can unfold.

Their voices may be quiet, but they are strong,

A reminder of what is right, and what is wrong.

So let us listen to the voices in the silence,

Let us hear their stories, and end the violence.

Let us honor their memories, and never forget,

The voices of the silenced, the ones we must protect.

It speaks of love, of hope, of dreams,

And all the things that life can bring.

It tells me stories of days gone by,

And of the future yet to arrive.

These voices in the silence,

Are the ones that keep me sane,

They are the ones that guide me,

Through the darkness and the pain.

They are the whispers of the angels,

Sent to watch over me,

To guide me on my journey,

And help me to be free.

For in the silence of my heart,

I hear the voices of my past,

The memories that haunt me,

And the dreams that didn't last.

But these voices in the silence,

Are the ones that keep me strong,

They are the ones that give me hope,

And help me to carry on.

They speak of love and understanding,

And of the beauty of this world,

They tell me to keep believing,

And to let my spirit unfurl.

For in the silence of the night,

When all around is dark and still,

The voices in my heart,

Are the ones that always will.

They are the ones that give me courage,

And the strength to face each day,

They are the ones that keep me going,

When life gets in the way.

So listen to the voices in the silence,

And let them guide you on your way,

For they are the ones that know your heart,

And will never lead you astray.

They are the whispers of the universe,

The song of the soul,

The voice of love and wisdom,

That will always make you whole.

So let the voices in the silence,

Be your constant guide and friend,

And know that in the end,

Love and light will always win.
