Thomas Matthews song "From the Shadows to Sunshine"



Song Title: "From Shadows to Sunshine"


Verse 1:

In the cold and dark, where the whispers hide,  

he was left alone, with nowhere to confide.  

Locked in the basement, where the shadows played,  

A young boy’s dreams were broken, in a cage he’d been betrayed.


Pre-Chorus 

His tears fell like raindrops, in a world so bleak,  

Silent screams echoed, through the walls so weak.  

But in the darkest corners, where hope seemed so small,  

A flicker of a future would answer his call.


Chorus 

From shadows to sunshine, from darkness to light,  

He found a way to survive the night.  

In the arms of new fathers, his heart learned to mend,  

From the basement of sorrow to the warmth of a friend.


Verse 2 

The echoes of his past, the whispers of his pain,  

Carried through foster care, like a never-ending rain.  

But through the storms and trials, he held on tight,  

A young heart on a journey, towards the morning light.


**Pre-Chorus:**  

His new dads showed him kindness, in every gentle touch,  

A love so overwhelming, that he’d never known so much.  

From broken dreams to healing, from fears to tender care,  

Thomas Matthews was embraced, by a love so rare.


**Chorus:**  

From shadows to sunshine, from darkness to light,  

He found a way to survive the night.  

In the arms of new fathers, his heart learned to mend,  

From the basement of sorrow to the warmth of a friend.


**Bridge:**  

No more chains of silence, no more nights so cold,  

He’s rising from the ashes, with a story to be told.  

The basement’s just a memory, a shadow of the past,  

In the light of his new family, he’s free at last.


**Chorus:**  

From shadows to sunshine, from darkness to light,  

He found a way to survive the night.  

In the arms of new fathers, his heart learned to mend,  

From the basement of sorrow to the warmth of a friend.


**Outro:**  

Now the skies are clearer, and the nights are bright,  

He dances in the glow of his new life.  

From the basement’s darkness, he’s emerged so strong,  

With love as his guiding star, where he truly belongs.

romantic love of takumi series and my "can you see me" story

  Why Ryan Wouldn’t Fall for Gii: Writing Respectful Romance After Trauma When I started writing my story, I didn’t set out to critique other works. But as I got deeper into Ryan’s character—a young gay survivor learning how to trust again—I couldn’t help but think about the Takumi-kun series, and specifically, the relationship between Takumi and Gii. That series holds meaning for a lot of people. It’s tender, atmospheric, and emotionally charged. And to be clear, this post isn’t meant to disrespect the creators or fans of Takumi-kun . Everyone engages with stories in their own way, and art—especially queer art—has room for many voices. But there was something about how Gii’s love was portrayed that didn’t sit right with me. He often pushed too hard—especially early on. He didn’t know Takumi’s past, and yet he tried to physically advance their relationship in ways that disregarded Takumi’s fear. It was framed as romantic, but for someone like Ryan, that approach would’ve caused...

Sam's song "Born between the lines"

Song Title: "Born Between the Lines" Verse 1:   In a world that draws its lines so clearly,   Where the colors blend and shift, I feel the fear.   Born between the pages, in a story undefined,   Sam's a voice that whispers, "Am I just a design?" Pre-Chorus:   From the moment of my birth, I was caught in a fight,   A spectrum in the shadows, hidden from the light.   Every label that they’ve used, every word they’ve said,   Despite the tears I've shed, I’ve been learning to stand strong. Chorus:   Born between the lines, where the edges blur and fade,   In a world that’s quick to judge, and a truth that’s often swayed.   I’m more than what you see, I’m a story yet to be found,   Sam's a soul learning to love the space she’s left behind. Verse 2  In the mirror’s reflection, there's a question in the gaze,   Do I fit in your boxes, or am I lost in the maze?...
