She is tired

The Silent Places

There’s a place I go, where the noise cannot reach me—
The air is still, and everything stills with it.
No tension in my brow, no weight in my chest,
No explanations to give, no one to impress.

I am unseen here, but known.
Not performing, not hiding—just being.
This place doesn’t demand or devour.
It listens. It waits. It breathes.

No stage lights or spotlights.
No curated story to uphold.
Here, I am undone—and perfectly whole.
Soft. Tired. Gentle. True.

This place doesn’t speak.
But oh, it understands.

    That last line is first person. Is that where you are, Skelly?

      All writing is part of me, but it’s just a piece of writing from an overwhelming few months. I write often in a journal and sometimes combine things later when I am ready to type them out. That’s this. I’m okay. Tired in spirit and emotional, but okay.
