LOST IN THE SHADOWS FINDING THE LIGHT
Dear Unsealed,
I wrote a song.
LOST IN THE SHADOWS FINDING THE LIGHTDear Unsealed,
Sunrise paints the western sky,
Colors burst as day draws nigh.
A gentle breeze begins to blow,
Whispering secrets soft and low.
Oh, the world awakens, fresh and new,
A symphony of life, for me and you.
Birdsong fills the morning air,
A vibrant tapestry beyond compares.
Dew-kissed petals, softly gleam,
Reflecting sunlight, like a dream.
The world is waking, one by one,
Beneath the warmth of the rising sun.
Oh, the world awakens, fresh and new,
A symphony of life, for me and you.
Birdsong fills the morning air,
A vibrant tapestry beyond compares.
With every sunrise, hope takes flight,
Chasing shadows from the night.
A brand new day, a chance to start,
With open heart and joyful heart.
Oh, the world awakens, fresh and new,
A symphony of life, for me and you.
Birdsong fills the morning air,
A vibrant tapestry beyond compares.
The day unfolds, its beauty bright,
A world of wonder, pure delight.
Lost in the shadows, searching for light,
A path undefined, a future unclear.
Doubt clouded my vision, dimming the day,
But hope whispered softly, guiding the way.
I’m rising above, reaching for more,
Unveiling my strength, unlocking the door.
With every step forward, a new lesson learned,
My spirit is soaring, my purpose is earned.
The journey is long, with trials and fears,
But resilience is born from overcoming tears.
I stumble and fall, but I rise once again,
Embracing the challenges, learning to mend.
I’m rising above, reaching for more,
Unveiling my strength, unlocking the door.
With every step forward, a new lesson learned,
My spirit is soaring, my purpose is earned.
The past is a teacher, the present a guide,
The future’s a canvas, where dreams reside.
I paint my own story, with colors so bright,
Creating my destiny, shining my light.
I’m rising above, reaching for more,
Unveiling my strength, unlocking the door.
With every step forward, a new lesson learned,
My spirit is soaring, my purpose is earned.
Soaring, my spirit is soaring,
My purpose is earned, my light is pouring.
I wrote this today
Along life’s highway
As I walk through the shadows in the dark
I do not fear the moonlit night
I arise in the morning light
Thankful I can see the light
Shining through my window shades
The shadows dissipate from the dark
It is not too late
to open the gate
To watch the sunlight spark!
The shades open up
To see my shadow fade

Vicki, your song is such an inspiration! I love how you discuss the ways doubt can cloud our perceptions of ourselves. But, like you said, we paint our own stories and can change the narrative. I am glad that you can see the light now and are finding joy in your life. Thank you for sharing your experience!
