Inner temple broken flame, forgotten soul a life of pain, shattered remnants frozen tears, sift the rubble wasted years. Silence still in shattered time, embrace the broken pantomime. Distilled in sadness lost within, the shadow calls in this prison

Beneath the noise, beneath the screams, there’s something watching in between
When all illusions fall apart, the truth begins where endings start

I hear the voice that speaks in silence
When all the world has turned away
Through the suffering, through the violence
There’s a fire that remains

I hear the voice that speaks in silence
Not of comfort, not of blame
It doesn’t beg, it doesn’t save
It teaches me to stay

I walked the halls of hollow prayers
Sought relief that wasn’t there
Every wound became a door
Every loss revealed the floor

No savior came, no guiding hand
Just breath and bone and burning sand
I stopped resisting what I feel
And found the pain was always real

Suffering is not the curse
It is the lens, it is the verse
That strips the lies, removes the mask
And leaves the only honest path don’t ask it why, don’t beg it cease
Sit with it until it speaks

I hear the voice that speaks in silence
Clearer now through open scars
Not a promise, not a guidance
Just the truth of who you are I hear the voice that speaks in silence
When I stop demanding change I don’t escape, I don’t transcend
I learn to remain When nothing answers…Listen closer.
