In the Silence of Shadows

In the silence of shadows, where echoes dwell,
Two souls once entwined in a tender spell.
We danced under stars, our laughter a song,
Yet time, that cruel thief, whispered we’d be wrong.

You held my hand gently, a promise, a vow,
But seasons turned cold, and I lost you somehow.
Each heartbeat a memory, a ghost in the night,
Your absence a wound that won't heal in the light.

The whispers of twilight still call out your name,
A haunting reminder of love turned to pain.
We painted our dreams in hues of the dawn,
Now, shadows drape over the love that is gone.

I wander through moments, retracing each step,
Each smile and each tear, the joy and regret.
We built a world fragile, like glass in the sun,
But storms raged around us, and we came undone.

Your laughter still lingers, a bittersweet sound,
A melody trapped where no solace is found.
I reach for your ghost, but you slip through my grasp,
A fleeting illusion, a love that won’t last.

The moon watches over, a witness to fate,
As I cradle the memories, holding them late.
In dreams, you return, but dawn steals you away,
And I wake to the silence, where shadows still play.

If love could be timeless, I’d hold you so tight,
But fate drew its curtain, and darkness stole light.
In the silence of shadows, I cherish the past,
A love once eternal, now fading so fast.

So here in this emptiness, I whisper goodbye,
To the echoes of laughter, to the dreams that can’t fly.
For in the heart’s chamber, where memories reside,
I’ll carry your spirit, forever my guide.
