Silenced for so long
But the urge never gone
Decades denied
Buried deep inside.
Then a yearning arose
Like a whisper to the soul
So soft, so readily ignored.
Unquenched a gnawing hunger grew
Demanding to be heeded
To be repressed no more.
Until pent reflections overflowed
Quiet ponderings were voiced
Resonated loud and clear
In verses honest and raw.
Have come full circle
To where it all began
Emotions flooding in
Thoughtful musings finding form
On this day, the poet in me…reborn.
