Shadows of Trust

Through the shadowed nights, I walk alone

Secrets in my mind, whispers carved in stone

Trust was a house I built with care

Now crumble dust, lost in despair

Heart pounding, paranoia's grip

Echoes of doubt, a sinking ship

Who can I believe, when shadows deceive?

Hurt cuts deep, can't retrieve

I'm taking back my own way, can’t be broken

Fighting through the pain, words unspoken

Hated in the mirror, paranoia's gaze

Walking alone through the maze

No more chains, I break free

Self-reliant, just me

Storm inside, but I will survive

Reclaiming what's mine, alive

Silent and strong, I stand tall

In this fight, I won't fall

Moving forward, pain behind

My own path, I’ll find
