The Scream Inside the Silence

You didn’t scream.
But not because it didn’t hurt.
You stayed quiet —
because silence felt safer than not being believed.

You swallowed pain like it was air.
You smiled through the splinters.
You became a monument to endurance.

But something inside never stopped trembling.
And now — it’s no longer asking.
It’s rising.

This room isn’t here to break you.
It’s here to witness you.

Not the version that coped.
The one that wanted to howl but never did.

Sit in that stillness.
And listen.
There’s a voice inside your silence.
And it has waited long enough.

When you’re ready, ask yourself:

“What is the scream inside my silence trying to say?”

You don’t need to scream it.
You just need to let it exist.
