I sit in the quiet room.
Where the walls hold the weight of my thoughts.
The air hums softly with things I can’t say,
And the shadows move around memories I haven’t claimed.
Every breath outlines the edge of my loneliness.
Every sigh leaves a trace on the silence.
No one comes in, no one interrupts this place.
And in its peace, I am completely myself.
The world outside may shout and ask for more.
But here, time slows down to hear me.
A quiet music plays just for me.
A song of being, wild and hidden.
