The Final Word Was Silence
A poem

She never sought revenge
Nor wished to prove them wrong
Her heart was tired of fighting battles
She only craved the calm
🦋
Through chaos they had led her
Through years of shadowed fight
She learned that peace outweighed the need
For closure’s fleeting bite
🦋
For closure meant more speaking
Another twisted spin
Another wound torn open wide
Another storm within
🦋
But peace arrived in silence
No answers to be shown
She chose to walk without their words
And claimed her strength alone
🦋
She ignored the calls that haunted
Deleted every plea
And vowed she’d never beg again
For love that should be free
🦋
Her healing was not thunder
No blaze, no roaring trial
It moved with quiet certainty
Strong, steady, firm, and final
