Walls held tension like a vice
Anger sliced like fractured ice
Soft voice rose not to oppose
Only soothed where frenzy froze
Tone like steady winter flame
Melted fear without a name
Calm unwound the knotted thread
Peace returned where rage had bled
No command to change the storm
Only warmth to shift the form
Storms relax when winds grow kind
Hardened hearts release the bind
Strength speaks soft not sharp or loud
Grace dissolves the storming crowd
Gentle does not mean afraid—
Softest tones hold fiercest blade
