Shadows of Mattie

Deep in my mind, a restless storm

Questions echo, will I be reborn?

Woke up this morning with doubts in my head

Treading the line between chaos and bread

Thoughts in a whirl, trying to find my ground

Facing the fears that make no sound

Could I hold on, could I stay strong?

Or am I lost in this endless song?

I don't know if I’ll make it through today

Caught in the shadows, begging to stay

Should I go back where the shadows creep?

Or break free and find my peace?

Whispered voices in my mind’s eye

A call to safety, a silent cry

But deep inside, I want to believe

There’s light ahead, beyond the grief

Maybe tomorrow, maybe I’ll find my way

Hold on to hope, don’t let it stray

One step at a time, I’ll learn to breathe

And find the strength in what I believe
