Chapter 1 the darkness within

His mind was a cathedral of shadows,

Where every thought wore a black disguise.

His heart had forgotten mercy,

Leaving only echoes behind his eyes.


He no longer feared the monsters—

He had learned to speak their names.

Every promise turned to ashes,

Every memory fed the flames.


Trust became a foreign language.

Love became a whispered lie.

He buried hope beneath the silence,

And watched another dream slowly die.


The night called him its own,

Wrapping him in endless cold.

A soul carved from abandoned prayers,

Too young to feel this old.


He kept walking through the darkness,

Without asking for the dawn.

Because sometimes the deepest scars

Remain long after the light is gone.

His mind was a cathedral of shadows,

Where every thought wore a black disguise.

His heart had forgotten mercy,

Leaving only echoes behind his eyes.


He no longer feared the monsters―

He had learned to speak their names.

Every promise turned to ashes,

Every memory fed the flames.


Trust became a foreign language.

Love became a whispered lie.

He buried hope beneath the silence,

And watched another dream slowly die.


The night called him its own,

Wrapping him in endless cold.

A soul carved from abandoned prayers,

Too young to feel this old.


He kept walking through the darkness,

Without asking for the dawn.

Because sometimes the deepest scars

Remain long after the light is gone.

His mind was a cathedral of shadows,

Where every thought wore a black disguise.

His heart had forgotten mercy,

Leaving only echoes behind his eyes.


He no longer feared the monsters―

He had learned to speak their names.

Every promise turned to ashes,

Every memory fed the flames.


Trust became a foreign language.

Love became a whispered lie.

He buried hope beneath the silence,

And watched another dream slowly die.


The night called him its own,

Wrapping him in endless cold.

A soul carved from abandoned prayers,

Too young to feel this old.


He kept walking through the darkness,

Without asking for the dawn.

Because sometimes the deepest scars

Remain long after the light is gone.
