''The Marks it Leaves, the Silent Trace''

In the shadows where secrets lie,

There's a truth you cannot deny.

No matter where you run or glide,

Some things in life, you cannot hide.

The past may fade, but it won’t erase,

The marks it leaves, the silent trace.

The heart remembers what the mind forgets,

A web of memories, of old regrets.

Resurface strong, they won’t subside.

Like waves that crash against the shore,

For in the depths, where truth resides,

There’s no escape, you cannot hide.

Embrace what’s real, let go of pride.
