Echoes of the Night

Deep in the shadows, where silence dwells,   I hide within my silent shells.   Unseen by eyes that seek the light,   A ghost in day, a whisper in night.      My voice, a flicker, faint and frail,   Lost in the wind’s relentless gale.   Hushed by fears that demons breed,   They haunt my thoughts, they feed my needs.      Unheard echoes in the hollow air,   A cry for help lost in despair.   Behind the veil I softly hide,  A fractured soul no one beside.      Yet in this darkness, I still remain,   A flicker of hope through silent pain.   For even unseen, I carry fire—   A whisper of strength, a quiet desire.
