The Silence That Speaks

In silence, I drew this face β€” a quiet conversation with myself. For silence is never empty; it often carries the deepest stories within. πŸ•ŠοΈ

In silence, I found the clearest voice.
I created this portrait sketch not to capture perfect form, but to express a fragile yet powerful moment β€”
the kind when eyes are closed not out of exhaustion, but out of courage to listen to the voice within.

Each pencil line feels like peeling back layers of hidden emotion β€”
unspoken wounds, quiet longing, and hopes that continue to glow beneath the stillness.

For me, this work is more than a portrait.
It is a mirror of an inner world in motion β€” one that often goes unseen by others.
Through this drawing, I want to invite anyone who looks at it to pause,
to close their eyes, and to listen to their own heart β€”
the truest voice we so often ignore. πŸ•ŠοΈ
