Night of Shadows

In the heart of a city [where dreams and shadows blend]
A whisper in the wind [a name without end]
A cherished haven [once called home]
On a night of fate [darkness began to roam]

Laughter filled the air [moments rare]
A feast of flavors bright [shadows took flight]
A dance with fate [an unseen alarm]
Moments lost in time [a fragile charm]

Darkness descended [a predator’s grip]
A shattered soul [a cruel eclipse]
The night grew heavy [shadows thick]
A suffocating veil [a sinister trick]

Yet through the night [a glimmer of light]
A beacon of hope [piercing the fright]
Gentle and kind [a path to find]
Healing begins [leaving darkness behind]

The aftermath [a silent scream]
A shattered dream [a broken seam]
In the depths of pain [a flame ignites]
A place to heal [strength in the nights]

Light and dark [a dance of fate]
Moments of hope [shadows that wait]
In the heart of the city [wounds concealed]
A journey of resilience [a spirit revealed]

From shadows deep [a rise anew]
Courage found [a vision true]
Through trials faced [and fears defied]
A resilient heart [undenied]

This path I’ve walked [through countless nights]
From past to present [enduring fights]
Yet in recovery [strength I find]
With time and therapy [and love so kind]

The scar remains [a mark of pride]
A testament to healing [with hope as my guide]
Trust may falter [but with each day]
I heal and grow [in every way]
