Hope
The Gentle Mask of Power
Power does not always shout;
sometimes it hides in the silence of a tulip—
beautiful, red, and yet
filled with a secret not easily understood.
Within every softness, a shadow of duality sleeps;
where feeling both saves and shatters.
Power is the ability to hold two faces—
one for the world,
and one that breathes only in the darkness of the heart.
