Enough with Silence''

I walked through shadows with no hand to hold

Told myself stories no one ever told

In the stillness where I broke apart

I found the echo of my heart

No need for thunder, no loud acclaim

No perfect lines, no one to blame

Just breath and bone, and space to feel

And something soft, and something real

I am enough in silence

Even when no one hears

I rise with quiet defiance

I face my buried fears

No louder voice defines me

No mirror needs to prove

I am enough in silence

And that is my truth

I used to chase the noise outside

Hiding from the tears I cried

But in the hush, I came alive

Found reasons not just to survive

No need for spotlight, no need to run

The peace I seek has just begun

The storm inside now sings me home

And I am never quite alone

I am enough in silence

Even when no one hears

I rise with quiet defiance

I face my buried fears

No louder voice defines me

No mirror needs to prove

I am enough in silence

And that is my truth

In the pause between the pain

In the breath I catch again

I find a strength I never knew

That every scar has shaped me too

I am enough in silence

And that’s where I belong

No need to shout my presence

I’ve been whole all along

If I never please the crowd

If I only speak to me

Still I am enough in silence

And finally, I see
