Shadow of a Broken Dream

In the quiet corner of midnight’s sigh,

Where silver stars refuse to gleam,

I stand beneath a silent sky,

Holding the shadow of a broken dream.

''

Once it danced in golden light,

A fragile flame in hopeful air,

It shimmered softly, burning bright,

With whispered promises laid bare.

''

But storms arrived without a sound,

And scattered faith like autumn leaves,

Now shattered hopes lie on the ground,

Drifting on cold and restless seas.

''

Yet in the ashes, faint but warm,

A spark of courage still remains,

From darkest night a new dawn’s born,

And healing rises from the pains.
