From Shadows to Sunrise

In the quiet of the night, shadows wrap around my mind,

Wrestling with the whispers of what I've left behind.

Searching through the echoes of a life that's been misplaced,

Thoughts of a thinker, haunted by the past I face.

Life was a struggle, every day was a fight,

Lost in the darkness, chasing that fading light.

The grip of addiction, it pulled me away,

Every high brought me low, in agony I lay.

I remember her laughter, my mother’s sweet embrace,

Now it feels like a ghost, a void I can't replace.

When the night got heavy, and I fell to my knees,

I gave up on living, just a shadow in the breeze.

But oh, I found the strength inside

To rise from the ashes, let the darkness slide.

With every tear that fell, I carved a new road,

Turning wounds into wisdom, breaking free of my code.

Days blurred into nights, the spiral spun 'round,

Lost in the chaos, I was lost but I found.

The light of reflection began to shine bright,

Each thought a stepping stone from the depths of the night.

The love that I missed fueled my will to survive,

Her voice in my heart, kept my dreams alive.

I took one step forward; the shadows fell away,

Rewriting the story, finding peace in my sway.

But oh, I found the strength inside

To rise from the ashes, let the darkness slide.

With every tear that fell, I carved a new road,

Turning wounds into wisdom, breaking free of my code.

So here’s to the journey, through struggle I grew,

From the depths of despair, now I see a clear view.

The power of love, the grace to forgive,

In the light of tomorrow, I’ve learned how to live.

Thoughts of a thinker, no longer alone,

Building a future from the seeds I have sown.

With each passing moment, I’m finally awake,

Transforming the hurt into a path that I make.
