Midnight Glow

Shadows stretching down the hall,

Every echo knows my name.

I keep dancing with the silence,

Trying not to feed the flame.

Windows wear the city lights,

Like diamonds on a rainy sky.

Every heartbeat asks a question,

I don't know the reason why.

Every mirror tells a story,

None of them look quite like me.

Maybe all the missing pieces Lead to who I'm meant to be.

I disappear into the midnight glow,

Wearing all the words I'll never show.

If you find me where the streetlights fade,

Don't mistake the dark for being afraid.

I'm still burning where nobody knows,

Holding on beneath the midnight glow.

Footsteps fading in the distance,

Every memory starts to bend.

I can hear tomorrow calling,

Like a voice around the end.

Clouds are moving, time is shifting,

Nothing stays the way it seems.

Still I carry little sparks of hope Hidden in my quiet dreams.

Every scar becomes a compass,

Pointing where I've yet to go.

Even when the silence answers,

There's a truth I'll come to know.

I disappear into the midnight glow,

Wearing all the words I'll never show.

If you find me where the streetlights fade,

Don't mistake the dark for being afraid.

I'm still burning where nobody knows,

Holding on beneath the midnight glow.

When the morning breaks the skyline,

I'll be more than what I've been.

Every shadow leaves a lesson,

Every ending lets light in.

I don't need the world to find me,

I just need the strength to stay.

Even in the deepest silence,

I can hear a brighter day.

I disappear into the midnight glow,

Leaving every fear I've come to know.

If you find me where the daylight starts,

You'll see the fire living in my heart.

Every step becomes a road of hope,

Every breath reminds me I can cope.

I'm still rising where nobody knows,

Higher than the midnight glow.

Shadows fade into the morning light,

Every star gives way to blue.

I was never lost forever— I was finding something true.
