shadows

In the shadows, where the lost souls creep, Whispers in the night, secrets we keep. Fighting through the pain, buried deep, In this concrete jungle, no time for sleep Haunted by the past, ghosts never fade, Walking through the chaos, a masquerade. Truths wrapped in lies, trust betrayed, In the depths of darkness, dreams are slayed. Lost in the echoes of a broken past, Shattered dreams, shadows cast, Every step forward feels like a trap, In this game of life, caught in the rap. Heart heavy, burdened with scars, Searching for solace beneath the stars, Each night a battle, each dawn a fight, In a world so cold, trying to find the light. Trust is a gamble, pain's the price, In this concrete jungle, roll the dice. But I rise from the ashes, refuse to fall, In the depths of despair, I’ll stand tall. In the shadows where the silence screams, Life’s a nightmare, unraveling dreams. Each corner turned, a new fear to face, Haunted by memories I can’t erase. Battling demons in the dead of night, Searching for hope, but it’s out of sight. The city's heartbeat echoes my pain, Lost in the cycle, dancing in the rain. Trust is fragile, like glass on the floor, One wrong step, and it’s gone forevermore. Fighting through the darkness, I wear my scars, A warrior’s spirit, reaching for the stars. Though the road is twisted, I’ll never break, Through the struggle and strife, I’ll find my wake. In the depths of despair, I’ll carve my own way, From the ashes of night, I’ll rise with the day.
