In the silence of the night, it creeps,
A whisper, a shadow, a weight so deep,
It wraps around the heart so tight,
Turning day into restless night.
The mind races, thoughts collide,
A storm within, no place to hide,
Breathing shallow, hearts beat fast,
A present haunted by the past.
Eyes wide open, sleep deprived,
Searching for peace, yet itâs denied,
In the stillness, a battle rages,
Fear and worry fill the pages.
Yet in the dawn, a glimmer shows,
A hope that slowly, gently grows,
For every night, there comes a day,
And light will guide the anxious away.
