The Sacred Sound of Safety

For years, the shadows spoke in a language of fear,

A silence so heavy, it was all I could hear.

Wounds with no scars, and words used as stones,

A wilderness walked in the spirit, alone.

But then came the Whisper, the Grit, and the Grace,

A light that no darkness could ever erase.

He didn’t give me a spirit to hide or to flee,

But a spirit of Power to set my heart free.

I reclaimed the fragments, the stanzas, the pen,

And learned how to breathe in the sunlight again.

No longer a captive to what used to be,

I am the gatekeeper of my own sanctuary.

For the woman who’s weary, for the elder who’s gray,

I’ve anchored my soul in the Truth of the Way.

I am in control of my emotional safety and peace,

And in the Savior’s strong arms, the tremors all cease.

With a mind that is sound and a heart full of love,

I am carried by Mercy and strength from Above.

So, lend me your ear, let the healing begin—

For the Spirit has spoken: You will rise up again.

The Heart Behind E.A.R.R.

E.A.R.R. was founded by Arlene Blakeney out of a deeply personal journey through emotional abuse, loss, and recovery. What began as a path marked by confusion, silence, and grief gradually transformed into a calling to help others who are walking similar roads. Guided by faith and resilience, Arlene turned her experience into a foundation for something greater—a place where others could find understanding, support, and hope. The mission is rooted in ensuring that no one has to navigate emotional trauma alone, and that every individual has access to the guidance and care needed to reclaim their sense of self.
