Shadows of Sorrow

"Navigating the Darkness and Finding the Light Within"

In the depths of my soul, a whisper remains

A lingering echo of joy, and love in vain

A pain that cuts so deeply, it leaves a lasting scar

A reminder of what's lost, and who we are

Like a canvas of shattered dreams

My heart once full of hope, now a fragmented theme

The memories of what could've been, they haunt me still

A bittersweet reminder, of love, loss, and unfulfilled will

But even in the darkness, a light begins to seep

A glimmer of hope and healing, a chance to learn and keep

The lessons of the heart, the wisdom of the soul

A deeper understanding, of what makes us whole

So I'll hold on to the hope, and let the healing begin

And though the pain will linger, I'll learn to love again.
