Echoes of Absence

In the silent spaces between heartbeats,

Is the quiet aftermath of shattered dreams.

Promises whispered, now lost in the mist,

As our souls part ways with a tender lingering twist.

A journey once begun with hearts entwined,

Now diverges, leaving memories behind.

A love once vibrant, now fades to grey,

As shadows lengthen at the close of day.

In dreams, we meet on a distant shore, 

Where time stands still, and pain is no more. 

But morning breaks, and I face the day, 

With echoes of absence that won't fade away.

In the tapestry of life, threads rearrange,

With separation’s embrace, a chapter to change.

So let us honor the love that bloomed bright,

In its transitioning, let us find some strength and light.

For in the art of separation's embrace,

We discover strength, we find our grace.

To cherish what was, and bid farewell,

To welcome the unknown where dreams propel.

So onward we journey, hearts renewed,

In the canvas of life, colors imbued.

With each step forward, a healing dawn,

Embracing the beauty of letting go and moving on.
