Secrets Beneath the Soil

Silent whispers in the dark, shadows whispering truths untold

Darin's searching for a spark, in a story cold and old

Young eyes, told tales of a vanished love

Mom's gone, left behind just a shadow of

Hope, innocence lost, echoes of her voice

Now he walks alone, making choices that destroy

Memories buried beneath the earth's cold grip

Secrets that he fears, he’s digging in

Dirt and doubt, chasing shadows in the night

Will he find her, or lose himself in the fight?

Oh Darin, be careful where you tread

Truth can be cruel, and lies can fill you with dread

Digging up the past, uncovering what’s been hidden

The ground might reveal what’s been forgotten or forbidden

His father’s words, a ghost that haunts his mind

Is the truth in the soil, or just a lie intertwined?

Every hole he digs, every clue he finds

Takes him closer to the truth, or a darkness unconfined

Whispers from the soil, stories of a love gone cold

Every secret’s a story, waiting to unfold

With each mark in the dirt, he’s unraveling the past

But some secrets are meant to stay buried where they last

Oh Darin, be careful where you tread

Truth can be cruel, and lies can fill you with dread

Digging up the past, uncovering what’s been hidden

The ground might reveal what’s been forgotten or forbidden

Is she lost forever, or waiting in the shadows?

Footsteps in the dark, what lies beneath the meadows?

Questions fill his mind, tears threaten to fall

The ground holds her secrets, will he hear her call?

Darin stands silent, hands in the dirt

The truth is a whisper, a fainting hurt

One last dig, one last chance to see

What’s buried in the ground, what’s meant to be free
