In the silence of the night, shadows linger,
Remnants of dreams that once shone so bright,
Now, they fade into the dark, a somber whisper,
Fading echoes of a life, lost in the fight.

Tears fall like rain, on a barren ground,
Each drop a story, each sigh a sound,
The heart beats on, with a hollow pound,
In the vast emptiness, where no solace is found.

Memories of laughter, now haunt the days,
A ghostly presence, in a foggy haze,
Happiness, a fleeting mirage, lost in a maze,
Wandering endlessly, in sorrow’s endless gaze.

Yet, in the stillness, a quiet strength grows,
From the ashes of despair, a resilience shows,
Though life’s cruel tempest, endlessly blows,
A spark of hope, in the darkest shadows, glows.
