Abstract

This autoethnographic poetic inquiry presents childhood and adulthood experiences of a silenced life that navigated the journey through silence into the world of speech. Using poetry to retell and relive these experiences creates the metaphor and the imagery into my world, thereby offering reflexivity, aestheticism, meaning, and hope. The two poems represent the stages of my life while I carry the reader along my passing years in a chronological manner. I invite the reader to enjoy, reflect, and interpret this poetry bearing in mind the broken shackles of the silenced voice.
