Silence has never felt so comfortable as it is now
The comfort of self is so fulfilling
Before a thought so unbearable
Alone, desperately so

Yet within that self, kindness
Kindness to the self develops like an old photo in a red room
It's so picturesque
A photo now framed within my home
A photo that I share as I invite someone new to experience these walls
It's my photo
It's my frame
But the joy I see when I share it with you
Makes the photo I love into art that inspires
