In shadows deep where silence sleeps,
A whispered cry the darkness keeps.
In hollow hearts where hope has waned,
A tapestry of tears ingrained.
The pills that promise quiet rest,
Lie heavy on a troubled chest.
Bent beneath the weight of sorrow,
Yearns not to face another morrow.
In the stark embrace of night,
Where stars have dimmed and lost their light,
A soul awaits its final breath,
To dance beyond the veil of death.
Yet in the dark, a faintest glow—
For even pain has room to grow,
A seed where strength and courage blend,
To seek the dawn where shadows end.
