In the twilight of a love now past,

Where memories linger, soft and kind,

I pause to cast my gaze at last

On the gifts you left, both heart and mind.

Though time has worn our paths apart,

And faded love no longer stays,

You etched your mark upon my heart

In countless, gentle, golden ways.

For in the dawn of our shared grace,

You gave me more than words can tell,

A warmth that time cannot erase,

A light that through the dark would swell.

The laughter shared, the tender touch,

The dreams we wove beneath the stars,

Though fleeting, meant so very much,

And healed the wounds of countless scars.

I thank you for the joy we knew,

For moments soft and days so bright,

And though our love has bid adieu,

Your presence still inspires my night.

Your kindness, like a river's flow,

Has shaped the person I've become,

And though the parting makes me low,

I cherish all that you've given some.

So here's to you, with heartfelt grace,

For love that once was pure and free,

And though it's faded, in its place,

Undying gratitude flows from me.

In every heartbeat, every breath,

In every dream where we once lay,

You live in the echoes of the past,

And I'm forever grateful, come what may.
