Oddly Luella

I am starting to like the silence.
A place I used to fear— where I could hear my own thoughts.

I’m starting to like the silence.
Something I once filled with noise so I wouldn’t be alone.

I’m starting to like the silence.
Where my mind once ran into the chaos.

I’m starting to like the silence.
Peaceful, still, calm.

I’m starting to like the silence.
Where I don’t have to do anything but breathe.

I’m starting to like the silence.
Where I can focus and build a better me.
