In the stillness where echoes weep,
Bound by chains that secrets keep,
A whisper in the darkened room,
Where dreams are trapped in silent gloom.

Walls close in with every sigh,
A caged bird longing to fly,
The heart beats in a prison’s song,
Yearning for a place it once belonged.

In shadows deep where light does fade,
Hope flickers like a blade,
Yet even in this darkened space,
The soul seeks its saving grace.

Through cracks where light dares to creep,
A promise of freedom’s leap,
In the heart’s quiet, desperate plea,
Lies the key to set it free.
