My Poem

Whispers of a Hidden Heart

In shadows cast by time's embrace,
A girl scribbles dreams on fragile page,
Ink bleeds hope in a world stifled,
Each word a whisper, soft like lace.

Trapped within the walls of silence,
Her spirit dances, daring to doubt,
Like a bird with clipped wings, yearning to soar,
Searching for sunlight, amidst a stormy route.

Each breath a symphony of secret fears,
As echoes of laughter linger in the air,
Anne's words ignite like fireflies at dusk,
A testament to resilience, strength laid bare.

In the heart of darkness, she blooms,
A rare flower painting life in muted rooms.
