IN THE SILENCE… ✍️

I sit in silence, with a pen in my hand,
Trying to write, but I don’t understand.
My thoughts are loud, yet nothing is clear,
The words escape, then disappear.

My heart is heavy, weighed by my past,
And present moment, but shadows still last.
I want to speak, to make them real,
But how do I say the things I feel?

The page just stares, so blank, so cold,
Like it’s waiting for a story untold.
I have so much locked inside,
Yet no right words seem to collide.

I wonder if others feel this way,
Holding in the things they can’t say.
Wanting to speak but fearing the cost,
Afraid of judgment, afraid of loss.

Maybe it’s okay to sit and wait,
Not every thought must hold its weight.
Perhaps in time, the words will flow,
And I’ll find the voice I used to know.

~ My silence isn’t emptiness, it’s the spaces where words are being born.
