shadows of past
In shadows deep, where memories sleep,
past whispers, it never lets me keep,

Moments of peace, fleeting and frail,
Panic's grip tightens, where memories sail.

One moment serene, the next consumed,
By echoes of trauma, in darkness entombed.

A mind's fragile dance, between then and now,
Reliving the past, a tormenting vow.

Time's cruel , to forget and recall,
A haunting cycle, holding us in thrall.

Each breath a battle, to stay in the light,
Against the tide of memories, relentless in their flight.

But in the courage to face each night,
Lies the strength to reclaim the dawn's first light.
