Through the Silence

I lost myself,

progressively.

One wrong turn,

and life unfolded.


Betrayal and lies

left their scars,

yet courage rose,

strength held firm,

even as criticism

tried to break me.


I was gutted by loss,

first my parents,

then a storm of turmoil

that pulled me apart,

leaving me distant

from family,

and everyone

I trusted blindly.


I sit 

in the stillness,

asking…

why those I trusted most

could let me fall

so easily.


Yet, somewhere within,

a flame remains.

Not fierce,

but steady.

It teaches the heart

to release what broke it,

and walk forward,

lighter than before.
