Sliding Through Shadows

Bare feet on these creaking old planks

Wind seeps in, breaking my thanks

Finger running slow along a faded line

Humming to the rhythm of yesterday’s time

My world is silent, but the guitar speaks

Windows rattle with memory’s call

Heavy hearts ready to fall

I keep sliding through the shadows at night

Letting each note carry my fight

I confess to the darkness in tune

My sorrow hums with the light of the moon

Bare and raw, I am true

Candle flicker dancing by my side

Pain and hope got nowhere to hide

One voice aching loud in this quiet space

Tracing every worry on my worn-out face

Fragile honesty rings clear

Windows rattle with memory’s call

Heavy hearts ready to fall

I keep sliding through the shadows at night

Letting each note carry my fight

I confess to the darkness in tune

My sorrow hums with the light of the moon

Bare and raw, I am true

Callused hands bleed blues in the dark

Every silence is etched with my mark

If home is a sound, it’s this trembling chord

Lost in the ache, I am restored

I keep sliding through the shadows at night

Letting each note carry my fight

I confess to the darkness in tune

My sorrow hums with the light of the moon

Bare and raw, I am trueWhen morning comes, I'll still remain

Sliding through shadows, singing my pain
