Poems
The Quiet Palette Within
There is a voice in all of us —
a voice that dreams,
believes,
and cares.
Words that do not want to belong,
do not want to conform—
they want to create.
These words want to paint.
You hear the voice
when you silence the noise
around you
and inside you,
even if only
for a fraction of a moment.
Here is what my heart paints
as I navigate through life—
its palette—
as I express how I feel
the world around me,
feel myself
around a world,
and mostly,
dare to fee
Here is a space
to celebrate every being
who has the courage
to listen to
this voice of silence
and paint it
in their own colors—
a quiet palette.
