In the quiet of the night, shadows dance and play,
Whispers of sadness, in silence they sway.
A heart weighed down by unseen chains,
In the realm of darkness, sorrow reigns.

Eyes that once sparkled with light,
Now dimmed by the endless fight.
A soul searching for a glimpse of hope,
In the tangled web of despair, it tries to cope.

The world outside moves in blissful haste,
While inside, a storm leaves a bitter taste.
Moments of joy, so fleeting and rare,
Lost in the abyss of an endless nightmare.

Yet, within the shadows, a flicker ignites,
A tiny spark challenging the endless nights.
For even in darkness, light strives to break free,
A testament to the strength of the human plea.
