In the Shadows of a Child’s Heart
In the dim-lit halls of yesteryears,
Where laughter mingled with hidden tears,
A child danced on a razor’s edge,
Acting out from a silent pledge.
I always wondered, in the throes of night,
Why shadows clung to my heart so tight,
With love’s embrace at arm’s length,
I paraded mischief with feigned strength.
Oh, Father, distant like a star’s cold light,
Your silence carved in me a frightful plight.
Mother’s gaze, like a foreign land,
Never quite held my outstretched hand.
Yet, grandmothers’ whispers and aunts’ soft touch,
Gave solace when the world proved too much.
Even as I donned the jester’s mask,
In their tender eyes, I found love to bask.
But it was fear, oh, a relentless guide,
And rejection’s sting that swelled inside.
The fuel of my childhood’s wayward fire,
A script written by invisible desire.
Only in the fullness of a man’s stride,
Did I unearth the reasons buried inside.
The journey long, through time’s thick brine,
For childhood’s reach is vast and malign.
In the mirror of the past, I see,
The boy I was, the man I’ve come to be.
Healed by truth’s unforgiving tide,
Where once was fear, now peace resides.
So let these words, like ancient runes,
Echo the change of countless moons.
The heart once lost in a tempest’s weep,
Now cradled in wisdom’s loving keep.
