16. Whispers of Knowing (002)

Mm

Ah I count the years by what they softened

Not what they took away from me

A quiet room can hold a lifetime

If I can bear its honesty

We learn the weight of being human By how we carry what

we know

Wisdom is a tender fire

Low and steady in the rain It does not ask the world

for triumph

Only truth enough to stay

In every wound a door is opening

In every loss a name for grace

I have seen love arrive imperfect

Still it taught the heart to kneel

Every flaw became a language

Every silence made me feel

We are broken into meaning

We are mended as we give

Hold the sorrow, hold the wonder

Let them rest inside one hand

There is mercy in the unanswered

There is peace in where we

stand

Wisdom is a tender fire

Low and steady in the rain

It can light the darkest passage

Without needing to explain

In every wound a door is opening

In every loss a name for grace

I let the silence finish

I let the silence sing

Mm
