In the Silence Between Words

 



There is a voice beneath the hush,

A whisper carved from years of silence,

Not fragile, not broken, just unseen-

Waiting for the moment to be spoken.

/

You lean in, but hesitate-

Not because I am distant,

But because your words are afraid

To touch the truth in my eyes.

/

I am not a shadow hiding behind curtains,

Nor a story you tell in passing-

I am the echo of your care,

The pulse beneath the quiet.

/

Speak to me, plain and clear,

Let the silence be honest,

For in your words, I find my strength-

Not in the hush that keeps me small.

/

I am here-whole, waiting, willing-

To be seen beyond the whispers,

Not a rumor, not a lesson,

But a voice that demands to be heard.

/

And when you finally meet my gaze,

You’ll see the quiet resilience-

A woman unbroken by silence,

Standing tall in her truth.
