Atonement's Path Poem by Dorukhan Baris Oguzcan

Through shadowed steps, my heart did stray, Lost in sin's cruel, binding sway. The weight of deeds, a crushing toll, Yet hope whispers to the weary soul.

The stars bear witness to my plea, A longing for what once could be. The crimson stain of acts undone, Burns beneath the absent sun.

I walk alone where silence dwells, Among the echoes, shame compels. Yet in this void, the seeds of grace, Bloom softly in a barren space.

Forgiveness waits, a sacred gift, Its gentle hand, the soul can lift. Through humble tears, my sins confessed, A heart remade, a life redressed.

Each burden bears a lesson true, From ashes rise, renewed and new. No fall too deep, no scar too vast, To find redemption's light at last.

The past may linger, sharp and raw, But mercy bends to break the law. In love's embrace, I stand, reborn, A soul reclaimed, no longer torn.
