Echoes of Love

In the quiet corners of my mind, Your laughter echoes, soft yet confined. Each morning dawns with a heavy sigh, As I whisper your name, my heart asks why. The world moves on, but I stand still, Caught in the shadows of an unyielding will. Memories glimmer like stars in the night, Each one is a reminder of love's gentle light. I reach for the moments, but they slip away, Like grains of sand through fingers in disarray. I search for comfort in places you’d tread, In echoes of words left unspoken, unsaid. The nights stretch long, the days feel cold, A story unfinished, a heart left untold. I wear my sadness like a fragile crown, Missing you dearly, as life keeps spinning around. But in this grief, I find a thread, A bond is unbroken, though you’re not here, instead. I’ll carry your love through the shadows of pain, For even in sorrow, true love will remain.
