The Gradual Dissipation of Love

Within hushed chambers, love's echoes fade,
Two hearts, once one, now drift apart,
Memories' tender ache stays,
Symphony of tears, hushed,
Fleeting moments gone,
Promises break,
Moving on,
Farewell,
Gone.

Wow! Superb work
Another great poem
So powerful, nailed it.
The gradual loss is heartbreaking. You've truly captured the movement of time and the dissolution of tender feelings in the span of nine lines. Beautifully written!
Flowing words of a split in which tears of sadness are shed and only memories remain in their hearts, yet separation persists. Sad and heartbreaking. I enjoyed reading your poem, Dr. Jay.
Nice read! This poem is so unique and inspiring. I wish I can write like you
