The Unsaid Truth I Poem By Sandleen
The Unsaid Truth
Some things we carry cannot be seen,
Not by the world, not even in a dream.
They hide beneath our quietest smiles,
And walk beside us for miles and miles.
We carry words we never said,
Old memories sleeping in our head,
The weight of hopes we never knew,
And little dreams we still hold true.
We carry moments left behind,
The ones that changed our hearts and minds.
A name, a place, a familiar song,
Can bring us back where we belonged.
We carry fear, but carry light,
We carry courage through the night.
And though our shoulders may grow tired,
We keep the little flame inspired.
Perhaps we are not strong because we never bend,
Or never pause.
Perhaps we’re strong because we stay,
And carry on another day.
For every heart has something there—
A story, a wound, a silent prayer.
And all the things we cannot show
Are often what make us grow.
