Cries of Smoke

In the depths of silence, where echoes reside, I reach out for her, but she's lost in the tide. 
With every heartbeat, I grasp at the air, yet she fades like a whisper, too fragile, too rare. 
A tempest of sorrow swells deep in my chest, as shadows engulf her, she seeks her own rest. 
My cries pierce the night, but they vanish like smoke, In this realm of despair, I'm left feeling broke. 
But still, in the darkness, a flicker ignites, a glimmer of hope, through the long, endless nights.
For though she may wander, lost in her plight, I'll hold on to the dream that we'll reunite.
