Chrysalis of Silence
Hidden in the shadows, behind closed doors, in rooms that know only the whispers of the past, live stories that have never been told. They linger in silence, etched into walls, into glances, into gestures that leave nothing but a trace. Nothing is spoken, yet everything is there—the inevitable, the unheard, the unseen.
Dark lines shape silhouettes, figures that dissolve, that half-appear and vanish again. Hands that touch but do not grasp. Faces without names, yet heavy with stories. In their shadows lies pain, but also movement, a shift, a quiet defiance against what once was. And then—a butterfly. Fragile, almost translucent, resting on a face, on closed eyelids, on lips that never spoke. A silent witness to transformation, a being between worlds. No longer just darkness, but change. From silence, metamorphosis emerges. What was hidden takes new form. What seemed trapped finds a way out. Not with a cry, but with the barely audible beat of wings.
