In The Morning After

Silent echoes, new beginnings dawn

Whispering hopes, a gentle song

The echoes of laughter fade into the air

Faded confetti, moments rare

Parties and lights, now just memories

Receding shadows, quiet melodies

But in the stillness, lessons lie

Beneath the silence, we can fly

Finding rhythm in the calm and slow

Steady beats that help us grow

Here's to the quiet, where dreams remain

Grounded in the subtle, soft refrain

Celebrations spark a fleeting flame

But life’s true music is steady and sane

Filling the space between the beats

Life’s gentle tremors, the small retreats

The steady pulse, the humble tune

Guides us softly, noon to moon

Hold onto lessons from the cheer

Find the harmony that’s always near

In steady rhythm, heal and mend

A melody that will never end

Here's to the quiet, where dreams remain

Grounded in the subtle, soft refrain

Celebrations spark a fleeting flame

But life’s true music is steady and sane

Lessons learned beneath the glow

In quiet moments where we grow

Tune into the world’s soft song

Find your rhythm, move along

So let the stillness be our guide

In calm, our truths reside

The steady beat, our daily grace

In quiet strength, we find our place1
