Eve Heintzelman Poet I do not know?

Quiet hours

Silence was an enemy but as the years went on,
I felt myself slipping away I was gone.
Silence was an enemy now a friend,
I find myself afraid of when the silence might end.
Silence was an enemy now I embrace it,
Silence is where I find myself where I truly fit.
Silence was an enemy now I need it to live,
To stay in the silence what wouldn't I give?

Silent One January 15, 2024 at 9:48 AM Your poem beautifully captures the evolving relationship with silence, transforming it from an adversary to a cherished companion. The progression through the verses reflects a personal journey, and the contrast in emotions towards silence is palpable...
