Dancing in the Dark

Whispers in the shadows,

A heart that feels so lost,

Under a sky of gray,

Wrestling with the cost.

Hiding in a corner, where the light barely gleams,

You’re the spark that keeps me,

Chasing elusive dreams.

They say you’re trouble, that I should let you go,

But in your tangled twilight,

I find a warm glow.

They see the scars I carry,

But they don’t understand,

The way you breathe through silence,

Like an ocean in the sand.

So I’ll dance in the dark,

With you as my guiding star,

Against the world’s insistence,

We’ll make it, even far.

Though the weight of the shadows,

Push down on my heart,

With you in my corner,

I’ll find a new start.

Caught in their judgments,

Like a storm without an end,

But when you wrap around me,

It feels like I can bend.

Every tear I’ve hidden,

Shows light in your embrace,

Fighting through the whispers,

I’ll find my rightful place.

So let them say what they want,

I won’t let them decide,

This love that we discover,

Is worth the bumpy ride.

So I’ll dance in the dark,

With you as my guiding star,

Against the world’s insistence,

We’ll make it, even far.

Though the weight of the shadows,

Push down on my heart,

With you in my corner,

I’ll find a new start.

In the night, I’ll breathe,

Underneath the weight of fears,

But with you, I’m learning,

To fight through my tears.

Let them shake their heads,

Let them try to pry,

I’ll hold your hand,

Together we will rise.

So I’ll dance in the dark,

With you as my guiding star,

Against the world’s insistence,

We’ll make it, even far.

Though the weight of the shadows,

Push down on my heart,

With you in my corner,

I’ll find a new start.

In a world so cold,

With noise around me loud,

I’ll choose you forever,

Through storms, I’ll stand proud.
