sudden fireworks

in the darkness of

a moonlit

night

a cry desperation

a soul's silent plea

but through the pain

and the tears

a story of strength flickering into light

a will to live start to

ignite

surviving in the shadows rising high above the cinders

a song of triumph a testament of love

from the deep depths of despair I found my way

the pain may

linger

and scars may long remain

I'm learning to find solace

in the strength

I've regained

with tears as my witness

and a blade in my hand

I faced the abyss and relearned how to stand
