Once I was a flicker, a flame ablaze,
With dreams that soared, in myriad ways.
But life's tempests, like relentless drums,
Whispered their secrets, and left me numb.
...
In shadows deep, a grieving family weeps,
Their hearts entwined, a bond once so complete.
But now, a void, an ache that won't retreat,
For in their midst, the mother's absence seeps.
...
In the depths of darkness, a boy did dwell,
Bound by chains of sorrow, his heart under a spell.
Anxiety, grief, and fears weighed him down,
In the shadows of his mind, a battle to be found.
...
In a realm of sorrow, a tale unfolds,
Of a boy obscured, a heartache untold.
Yearning to escape the shadows cast,
By comparisons that shatter his soul so vast.
...
In the realm of Glory, a boy once stood,
A beacon of hope, a guide for good,
With titles adorned, he led the way,
But little did they know, inside, he'd fray.
...
In a realm of sorrow, where shadows lay,
Three brothers stood, their destinies astray.
The eldest, a prince, burdened with a crown,
Thrust into a kingdom at youth's fragile dawn.
...
Once, a vibrant seedling, bathed in light's embrace,
His laughter bloomed like flowers, a joyous race.
But shadows crept close, whispered secrets so cruel,
Neglected by his father, a friendship's broken jewel.
