Shadows of your Gaze

Shadows of your Gaze

I feel your gaze; it frightens me so,

A cold, unyielding shadow where I go.

The pain you’ve wrought with every harsh command,

Etched deep within, like lines drawn in the sand.

Your touch, a memory I can't erase,

A mark of sorrow on a once-bright face.

Each word you spoke, a blade that cut so deep,

In restless nights, your whispers never sleep.

The echoes of your anger still resound,

In quiet moments, where no solace’s found.

Yet through the storm of hurt and endless night,

I seek a spark, a glimmer of the light.

For though your gaze may haunt and words may sting,

I’ll find my strength in the solace I bring.

And in the silence, I’ll reclaim my peace,

A future forged where all this pain shall cease.
