Comfort In Lies Poem by Iana Castro

In quiet corners, shadows loom,  
A fragile heart finds solace, bloom. 
Against the tide of past disdain,  
A hand extends, but wrapped in pain. 

With every word, a tender guise,  
A safety found beneath the lies. 
They lean on warmth that feels like home,  
Though chains of doubt still twist and roam. 

In moments shared, a flicker shines,  
Where kindness lingers, softly binds. 
Yet echoes of a harsher past,  
Whisper warnings, shadows cast. 

They know the cost, the silent strain,  
Yet comfort clings, like summer rain. 
For in this space, they feel a spark,  
A flicker bright against the dark. 

Caught in the web of love and fear,  
A heart finds solace, yet feels unclear. 
In tender ties, a struggle brews,  
To seek the light, yet hold the bruise.
