Where Silence Commands

Strength does not reside in sound However is steeped in the calm silence Presence not demanded but ground Intimidating and willed not by guidance A hard gaze of death stone cold Posture straight and strong Yet gentle and kind with warmth bold Calculated and purposed long Darkness proud and firm As shadows dance without suffocating An individual who breaks all norm Yet lives without ever hating Awakened from a past filled with pain A monarch of their own life never to chain
