shining through

Shadows shift, the day unfolds Questions arise, the future holds Within your core, a spark takes flight A force that grows beyond sight A whisper echoes in your soul You're more than others know Unpolished edges, raw and bold Your spirit brighter than pure gold Each crack reveals a deeper truth Beyond the limits of your being Imperfect lines that intersect Create the map of self-respect When the world seems out of tune Remember what lies within you Each stumble, every rise Shapes your story, makes you wise A whisper echoes in your soul You're more than others know Unpolished edges, raw and bold Your spirit brighter than pure gold Each crack reveals a deeper truth Beyond the limits of your being Imperfect lines that intersect Create the map of self-respect Each sunrise, a blank page A chance to rearrange Embrace the highs and lows They're treasures as your story grows Unpolished edges, raw and bold Your spirit brighter than pure gold Each crack reveals a deeper truth Beyond the limits of your being Imperfect lines that intersect Create the map of self-respect Beyond the shadows, you will rise Your strength reflects in endless skies No limit can define your worth Your journey starts, your dreams take birth A flame unbroken, pure and free Your story writes its own decree No boundary can hold you down Your spirit wears its own true crown
