In the night so deep and still,

Dreams of love the silence fills.

Once I held you, tender child,

Softest hands, a heart so wild.

But the wheel of fate will turn,

Every flame must one day burn.

What we hold will fade away,

Yet the shadows choose to stay.

Is it love, or just a dream?

A fleeting fire, a passing gleam?

Is it the body, or the soul?

Two hearts collide, becoming whole.

It’s the shadow of the heart,

Burning love that won’t depart.

Never fading, never gone,

Every loss makes it strong.

Mercy’s light breaks through the night,

Guides us home with holy fire bright.

Love’s the flame that will survive,

Through the dark, it keeps us alive.

I remember father’s hands,

Mother’s care through every chance.

When I stumbled, when I fell,

They stood guard, they knew me well.

Never saw their sacrifice,

Never thanked, though they paid the price.

Only when I held my son,

I knew the debt can’t be undone.

Is it duty? Is it fate?

Lessons taught when it’s too late.

Blinded eyes can’t always see,

The roots of love beneath the tree.

It’s the shadow of the heart,

Burning love that won’t depart.

Never fading, never gone,

Every loss makes it strong.

Mercy’s light breaks through the night,

Guides us home with holy fire bright.

Love’s the flame that will survive,

Through the dark, it keeps us alive.

Dancing shadows in the fire,

Every tear lifts us higher.

Children teach the truth we hide,

Shadow love will never die.

It’s the shadow of the heart,
