In the darkness of my quiet room, I weep alone just a single mother tending to the seeds I’ve grown. No guidebook for this journey I’m upon, lost in the shadows where my fears are drawn. Two children cling their innocence is so pure yet their mother’s heart a heavy anchor for sure but still in my darkness I long to be seen Afraid to find a love as I hesitate to freely give my love My past as heavy chains that I cannot flee in broken men I search to find peace All I find is a false decree each empty touch is a taste of happiness, but it leaves my soul in deeper loneliness I know these men will never light my way but like a fool I wish for a love to stay In my moments of desperation, I turn to them just hoping their attendance will heal my heart condemn but deep within my lies a truth untold my strength that rises from the depths so brave… I am more than my mistakes and my wounded holds a strong mother my love destined to last my dark shadows linger slinging doubts so powerful but in these tears a pool of mercy a warrior rises from her darkest place Out of the shadows shines grace as the sun shines upon my face.
Tears in the Shadows
