In shadows deep, where secrets lie,
A whisper soft, a hidden sigh,
Deception weaves its tangled thread,
In hearts and minds, its promise spread.
The mask of truth, a fragile guise,
Conceals the truth with whispered lies,
A dance of shadows, light and dark,
Leaves a trail, a fading mark.
In mirrored eyes, reflections play,
A game of trust in disarray,
Yet in the silence, echoes call,
Revealing truths beneath the thrall.
Oh, gentle heart, in search of light,
Beware the paths that hide from sight,
For in the end, the truth will rise,
Unveil the soul, and clear the skies.
