The echoes whisper, soft but clear,
A past of pain, a thread of fear.
Yet time moves on, the tides will shift,
You are more than every rift.
The night, once heavy, cold, and vast,
It is not the weight that’s meant to last.
The dawn still breaks, the sun still shines,
Even through the tangled vines.
Your skin has stories, lines, and marks,
But they do not define your spark.
Each wound that fades, each breath you take,
Is proof of all the strength you make.
You are not broken, nor undone,
You are a battle fought and won.
Step by step and day by day,
Your light won’t ever fade away.

The imagery of whispers and tides shifting reminds us that while the past may hold pain, the future is filled with hope and renewal.
I especially love how you highlight the stories written on skin, each mark a testament to resilience and strength. (Which it issss) Your message that we are not defined by our struggles, but rather by our courage in facing them, is a powerful reminder for us all.
