In the shadows of our home, darkness lingers
Whispers of pain echo through the night
The silent scream of broken hearts
Lingering beneath the surface, out of sight
Bruises hidden by deceptive smiles
Tears fall silently, unseen by the light
Love twisted into chains that bind
Freedom seems a distant, fading light
Words like daggers pierce the soul
Trust shattered, leaving fragments behind
Hope dims in the cage of fear
Yet the spirit still seeks to find
A glimmer of a future without pain
A dream of peace, of gentle rain
The silent scream will one day cease
For in courage, we find release
