In the depths of your eyes, a ocean of emotions reside
A tidal wave of feelings, that ebbs and flows with each tide
The shores of your heart, a landscape of love and pain
A topography of memories, where joy and sorrow remain

The whispers of your past, a gentle breeze that rustles through
A forest of forgotten dreams, where shadows dance anew
The silence of your soul, a quiet storm that rages on
A battlefield of heartache, where love and loss are forever strong

Yet, in the midst of turmoil, a light flickers like a flame
A beacon of hope and resilience, that guides you through the shame
A voice that whispers "rise", when darkness tries to claim
A heart that beats with courage, and a spirit that refuses to tame

So let the waves crash, let the thunder roll
For in the eye of the hurricane, your strength and beauty unfold
And though the journey's long, and winding be the road
Know that you are a warrior, with a heart that's made of gold
