In the mirror, a stranger’s gaze,
Eyes that seek, yet seem to hide.
A heart that races, in a daze,
As childhood dreams start to divide.

Silent whispers of the night,
Secrets woven in tangled thoughts.
A world transforming out of sight,
As innocence in time gets caught.

The shadows stretch, the dawn arrives,
With questions wrapped in morning’s light.
A dance of fear, where courage thrives,
Through every tear, a silent fight.

In the garden of the growing soul,
Blooms of wisdom slowly rise.
With every step, the journey whole,
In the tapestry of endless skies.
