In the shadows of your light I stand,
A fragile heart in trembling hands.
Though I try to reach your skies,
My wings are clipped, my spirit cries.

You are the sun in a world so gray,
A beacon bright, lighting the way.
Yet I falter, fall behind,
Lost in doubts, a troubled mind.

Your love, a golden, distant star,
Shining bright, but oh, so far.
I stretch, I strive, I give my all,
Yet I’m afraid, I always fall.

In your eyes, I see my flaws,
Every crack, each silent pause.
I wish to be the one you need,
But fear I’m not enough, indeed.
