in the light

arqios


Notice of absence from arqios
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind

In shadows cast by doubt, our truths reside,
Once cloaked in whispers, masked by fleeting lies,
But now the veils of silence fall aside,
Revealing hearts where honesty hidden lies.

No longer shall our voices drown in shade,
For every word once hushed now finds its breath.
These tales we weave, no longer left to fade,
Exposes strength in facing fear and death.

Those lies that bound us break like fragile chains,
As clarity ignites each dawn’s embrace.
In openness, we shed our past's refrains,
And step into the light, a vibrant space.

To no longer be belied is to reclaim,
Our rightful story, OURS; in truth's bright flame.

          Cryptic this write speaks of how a lie continued out of fear can dispell such fear by exposure. Several good lines (Once cloaked in whispers, masked by fleeting lies,) Very nice Cryptic

                        "Shadows cast by doubt" leads gracefully to the rest, very well said.
