Fragments of Us

In laughter's light, two hearts entwined,

A friendship forged, a bond refined.

We shared our dreams, our secrets deep,

In whispered nights, our promises to keep.

But storms rolled in with words like knives,

Our playful banter turned to jives.

Misunderstandings sparked the flame,

What once was joy became a game.

Fights like thunder, echoes of pain,

Broken trust like shattered rain.

We built our walls, our hearts turned cold,

The stories of us, too bitter to hold.

Yet in the quiet, hearts began to ache,

For all the memories that we couldn't shake.

Apologies whispered in the dark,

A flicker of hope, a tiny spark.

With trembling hands, we reached across,

Through tangled grief and feelings lost.

To mend the cracks, to find a way,

To heal the wounds of yesterday.

So here we stand, on fragile ground,

In the rubble of love, new roots are found.

With every tear and every fight,

We learn to cherish, to hold on tight.
