Analysis of Where The Light Shines From The Cracks Inside The Soul
Where the light shines from the cracks inside the soul,
A radiant beacon, making brokenness whole,
In the wounded heart, it finds its way,
To guide the lost, to brighter day.
Through life's trials and the darkest night,
This inner light is a source of might,
From the depths of despair, it'll make you whole,
Where the light shines from the cracks inside the soul.
It's not in perfection that its brilliance gleams,
But in our imperfections, in our shattered dreams,
In our moments of vulnerability, when we're less than whole,
Is where the light shines from the cracks inside the soul.
It's a reminder that we can heal and mend,
That even in brokenness, love can transcend,
The scars that we carry, the wounds that take their toll,
Where the light shines from the cracks inside the soul.
So don't fear your fractures, your inner scars,
For in those very cracks, you'll reach for the stars,
And from the depths of your being, a story will unroll,
Where the light shines from the cracks inside the soul.
