Shadows and Light

In the quiet corners of a restless mind, Where shadows linger, softly intertwined. A weightless whisper drapes like night’s embrace, Yet within this darkness lies a hidden grace. The heart beats slowly in muted tones, Echoes of laughter turned to distant moans. But even as clouds obscure the sun's bright glow, Hope flickers gently; it yearns to grow. Each tear that falls is not just despair— It carves out rivers through valleys laid bare. For from these depths where sorrow takes its flight, Emerges resilience—a spark ignites light. With every dawn comes an artist anew; Painting with colors both vibrant and true. Though storms may gather on life’s vast sea, There blooms understanding—the soul learns to be free. So let us walk hand-in-hand through this haze— Finding strength together in myriad ways. For though depression casts long shadows wide, Within each struggle resides hope inside.
