In the heart of a home, where silence reigns,
Echoes of unspoken words linger in the air,
Each room a keeper of secrets, of unshed tears,
Family ties strained by the weight they bear.

Through the cracks of whispered arguments,
Shadows of love and pain interweave,
Walls adorned with memories, both sweet and bitter,
A fragile balance of what we give and receive.

Eyes meet in fleeting moments of understanding,
A silent plea for peace within the storm,
Yet pride and fear build barriers high,
Leaving hearts aching, cold, and forlorn.

But in the depths of night, hope dares to bloom,
A promise that healing will one day find its way,
For within the bonds of family, no matter how frayed,
Lies the strength to face another day.
