In the depths of her heart, fear resides,
The darkness engulfs, where shadows collide.
Afraid of the unknown, she trembles inside,
As the dimmest of lights, still cause her to hide.
The brightness that blinds, one shade too bright,
It pierces her soul, fills her with fright.
She shies away from the crowd’s loud cheer,
On the grand stage of pride, she drowns in fear.
A thousand eyes upon her, but her voice is lost,
Silenced by anxiety, a heavy cost.
Yet, she portrays strength, appears so strong,
But deep down, she, too, finds words all gone.
And as you sought to understand her strife,
You discovered your own loss in this life.
Both wandering souls, struggling to be heard, In a world where silence can speak louder than words.
