Beyond the Shadows

Walking alone, I see the world spin 'round
Smiles in the distance, beyond my grasp they abound
In city shadows, lost in the dark I roam
Seeking a reason, a path to call my own

Rain falls, chilling to the bone
Whispers of wind, an emptiness known
Yet something within me, still burns bright
In my heart, a hope that refuses to die

Frailer than I'd ever wish to concede
Battling the sadness, that won't recede
I'll find my voice, my guiding light
Even in darkness, I won't lose sight

With heavy steps, I forge ahead
Loneliness grips, in its singular thread
Yet in falling leaves, I hear a call
A distant echo, guiding through it all

Rain falls, chilling to the bone
Whispers of wind, an emptiness known
Yet something within me, still burns bright
In my heart, a hope that refuses to die

Frailer than I'd ever wish to concede
Battling the sadness, that won't recede
I'll find my voice, my guiding light
Even in darkness, I won't lose sight

The road stretches long, often lonely
But within me, something extraordinary
Each step, a battle, a victory found
I won't give up, seeing beyond what's around

Frailer than I'd ever wish to concede
Battling the sadness, that won't recede
I'll find my voice, my guiding light
Even in darkness, I won't lose sight

Rain falls, yet here I stand
Whispers of wind, but I'll withstand
Fear tries to pull me down
But I'll rise, and keep moving on
