Fading Shadows

Shadows cling to where I tread,

A past of darkness, now I dread.

Lucifer's chains no longer bind,

But echoes of evil still I find.

A flicker of light, a distant call,

To rise above, to break the fall.

Can these hands, once stained in red,

Now weave a path of good instead?

A saving song, a whispered plea,

To mend the wounds and finally be free.

Though scars remain, a haunting trace,

I'll fight for hope, for love, for grace.

Allies now where foes once stood,

Together facing what we should.

Correcting my wrongs, a heavy toll,

To heal the cracks within my soul.

A flicker of light, a distant call,

To rise above, to break the fall.

Can these hands, once stained in red,

Now weave a path of good instead?

A saving song, a whispered plea,

To mend the wounds and finally be free.

Though scars remain, a haunting trace,

I'll fight for hope, for love, for grace.

The beast I was, a haunting shade,

A tapestry of choices I made.

Guilt weighs heavy, a crushing blow,

For seeds of darkness I did sow.

But in that pain, a strength I find,

To leave the inferno far behind.

No longer bound by what has been,

Just a memory, a fading sin.

A flicker of light, a distant call,

To rise above, to break the fall.

Can these hands, once stained in red,

Now weave a path of good instead?

A saving song, a powerful cry,

I've faced the shadows, learned to fly.

With every step, a brighter day,

I've found my path, I'll light the way.
