The Quiet Room

A Sanctuary Where No One Can Enter

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.
