Whispers of Your Soul

Sitting staring at the wall,
I wonder if I deserve it all.
Loud voices fill the house,
but I sit there as quiet as a mouse.
My heart whispers to keep going,
but my minds thoughts just keep flowing.
The power of silence will have you thinking,
and your heart will begin sinking.
But somehow you know you're worth it,
the silence reassures you of your wit.
The world is screaming and yelling loud and clear,
but my soul is telling me not to fear.
