"Fading echoes"

They used to talk, they used to laugh, Now silence lingers in their past. Once, his words were warm and bright, Now they're ghosts that fade from sight. Her eyes still search, but not for long, The spark is there—then it is gone. A glance, a flicker, nothing more, Then he turns like before. She doesn’t chase, she doesn’t cry, She just stands as days drift by. Maybe she cared a bit too much, Maybe love was never enough. Now she’s numb—no words, no pain, Just empty echoes in the rain. If he looks back, what will he see? A girl who learned to set him free.
