In the corners where whispers linger,
Lies the weight of hidden fears,
Draped in silence, shadows grow longer,
Echoes of shame in unseen tears.
A heart burdened by unspoken sorrow,
Seeks refuge in the quiet night,
Tomorrow’s dawn may bring new light,
But shame’s shadow holds on tight.
Faces turned, eyes averted,
Truth hidden behind a mask,
In the silence, pain reasserted,
As shame completes its grievous task.
Yet within the depths, a spark remains,
A hope to break free from the chains,
To rise above the haunting stains,
And find peace beyond shame’s reign.
