Light in my Shadows

Lost in echoes, drowned in night,

A heart weighed down by ghosts that bite.

Every step, a whispered name,

Bound by sorrow, cloaked in shame.

The wind still speaks of days long gone,

Ash and embers, battles won.

Yet in my hands, the scars remain,

A past too heavy, a soul in chains.

But then I see you, golden light,

Soft and steady, burning bright.

A heart unbroken, pure and free,

You stand in hope, where I can't be.

Side by side on roads unknown,

Through the storm, through blood and stone.

Your laughter lingers in the air,

A warmth I swore was never there.

With every fight, with every fall,

You held your ground, you gave your all.

And slowly, something starts to mend,

A guard unwoven, a heart to bend.

And now I see you, not just light,

Not just hope in endless night.

You're the home I never knew,

The piece of me I lost in you.

No more shadows, no more chains,

No more running, no more pain.

Through your kindness, through your grace,

I have found my rightful place.

Hand in hand, the dark is gone,

Softened steps to morning’s song.

No more echoes, no more fight,

Just your love—my guiding light.
