In the quiet of the night, I ponder deep,

On dreams deferred and promises we keep.

A heart once full, now shallow as it beats,

That whispers of love, both bitter and sweet.

Through the haze of memories, I seek the light,

Of truths untold and battles fought in the night.

A journey through shadows, where hope takes flight,

On wings of resilience, soaring to new height.

The pain of deceit, a sharp sting so true,

Yet in its wake, a strength that grew.

For every lie told, a lesson anew,

A chance to rise, to start life's grand debut.

So here I stand, with heart open wide,

Embracing the future, with hope as my guide.

For though the past may try to hide,

The power of love will always abide.

In every tear shed, in every laugh shared,

In every moment that life has dared,

I find the courage to be unimpaired,

And in my heart, love will always be declared.
