" Taught Me About Silence " By Jacky Kapadia Silence came not as absence, but as grace, A quiet mentor in a hurried place; Where words fell short, its wisdom softly grew, Revealing truths no noise could ever construe. It taught me strength is not in what we say, But in the calm that guides us on our way; In pauses deep, where restless thoughts subside, And hidden fragments of the soul reside. Through silent hours, I learned to truly hear— The unspoken hopes, the distant echo of fear; It shaped my heart with patience, still, and wise, A language felt beyond what speech implies. Now I embrace the hush I once denied, For in its depths, my truest self resides; Silence, my teacher, steady and profound— In losing noise, a deeper voice I found. ==================END=================== #PoetryOfSilence, #DeepMeaningPoetry, #EmotionalPoetry, #SoulfulWriting, #ModernPoets, #InspirationalPoetry, #SilentStrength, #MindfulLiving, #InnerPeaceJourney, #PoetryLovers, #CreativeWritingCommunity, #SpokenWordPoetry, #HealingThroughWords, #ArtOfSilence, #PhilosophicalPoetry, #WritersOfInstagram, #PoetryGram, #LiteraryArt, #DeepThoughts, #PoeticExpression

"The Road Not Taken, or Was It? " By Jacky Kapadia Two paths once whispered through the trees, One dressed in gold, one veiled in green, I paused between their quiet pleas— Yet chose the one I’d always seen. For was it choice, or subtle design, A leaning heart, a patterned mind? Did I decide, or did time align To guide me gently, undefined? I speak of courage, roads untried, Of daring steps and fearless will, But truth walks softly at my side— Perhaps I followed echoes still. And years will paint this tale as mine, A path unique, a fate I cast, Yet in the end, I trace the line… Was it my choice—or shadows past? ==================END=================== #theroadnottaken, #inspirationalpoetry, #philosophicalpoem, #deepmeaningpoetry, #lifechoices, #decisionmaking, #fatevschoice, #motivationalpoetry, #modernpoetry, #reflectivepoetry, #originalpoetry, #thoughtprovoking, #creativewriting, #emotionalpoetry, #symbolicpoetry, #destinyvsfreewill, #shortpoems, #literarypoetry, #artisticwriting, #poetrycommunity, #lifejourney, #introspective, #meaningfulpoetry, #humannature, #deepthoughts
