The Quiet Spaces of Knowing

In the stillness of your mind, truth hums,

A whisper in shadows, where silence drums.

It lingers softly, a quiet refrain,

Nestled in corners of joy and pain.

 

It waits in the pit where instincts dwell,

A weight on your chest, a story to tell.

You push, you pull, yet there it stays,

Threading your nights and haunting your days.

 

To know is a blade that cuts so deep,

Through veils of denial, through restless sleep.

Yet knowing alone is a hollow key,

Until you accept what's meant to be.

 

Acceptance, a bridge so fraught with demand,

It asks for your courage, a trembling stand.

It calls for release of the things you've held,

The hopes that have bound you, the fears you've quelled.

 

Change looms like a tempest, fierce and wide,

But within it, strength will always reside.

The answer is etched, carved into your soul,

Not a fragment, but the whole of the whole.

 

Still, you stall, you bargain for time,

For proof, for signs, for stars to align.

But beneath it all, the truth is clear,

Its voice grows louder, ever near.

 

To surrender is not to bow or break,

But to rise with the courage your heart will make.

For the strength you seek is already there,

In the depths of your being, waiting to dare.

 

So step through the fire, embrace the flame,

Let knowing and accepting become the same.

On the other side, you'll find your way,

Lit by the truth you faced today.
