Echoes of Absence

In airports, where goodbyes linger long, More heartfelt than vows where weddings belong. Tears flow freely, embraces tight, Moments of love in the dimming light. In hospitals, prayers silently rise, More than temples or mosques or skies. Hope whispers softly through corridors cold, Stories of life and faith unfold. Graveyards stand with secrets told, More regrets than love letters old. Beneath the earth, where memories sleep, Whispers of sorrow in shadows deep. And in empty rooms, where echoes blend, Secrets find their truest friend. For love, regret, and hope take flight, When all that’s left is the silent night.
