Let them not discover the ocean of words dancing within me
Let them not discover the ocean of words dancing within me,
Unspoken, like a siren’s song hidden beneath the waves,
The wave of feelings embracing my heart like a silent hurricane,
Which I cannot refuse, a sea of vibrant and living emotions.
I put down the pen, and the ink faded like a sunset,
I closed the gates of technology, hid the soul behind the digital curtain,
Where only the silence of lips and shackles of hands can be seen,
Subjected to their rules, like puppets in the hands of fate—
These reinforced norms, customs of a broken world,
In a shattered land, with a conscience torn by the winds of time.
Though acceptance is a double-edged sword, I still hope—
Gathering the shards of the self, embracing silence like an old friend,
Until values and the light of justice rise like a new beginning,
Emerging from the shadows that held us captive,
To fulfill the promise—The promise of a liberating Tomorrow.
Where my words will no longer be birds in cages of silence,
Where quiet will no longer be my only sanctuary.
Where voices will rise, unbound and bold,
To conquer freedom, to discover peace like a lost island.
