In the shadows of love

Within a realm of shattered dreams, Where sorrow drowns in silent streams, A tale unfolds, both cruel and true, Of love that's lost, forever through. In shades of gray, our hearts collide, Two souls to hide, Betrayed by fate, a tragic game, Where love's sweet fire turns to flame. With every beat, a tear cascades, The ache word unspoken, love's refrain, A symphony of heartbreak, endless pain. In whispered echoes, love's lament, Beneath a moon, our like a sea, As love's sweet whispers cease to be. Oh, how the heartstrings strain and weep, Yet hope within refuses to sleep, For even in the shadows' embrace, Love's gentle touch can leave its trace. So let this poem be a tribute true, To love that's lost, but forever knew, May tendering cries, Bring solace and healing as time flies. And as we mourn loves lost allure, May it remind us, love is pure, For even in heart's eternal flame. Michael
