Broken Melodies

Echoes of Longing

In the quiet of the night, I hear, The echoes of your voice so near, A whisper on the wind’s soft breath, A haunting song of love’s regret.

Your touch, a memory that fades, A ghostly presence in the shades, And though you’re gone, your spirit stays, In broken melodies and grey.

Forgotten Promises

We stood beneath the willow’s shade, Where dreams were spun and vows were made, Yet time, relentless, wore away, The love that bloomed in light of day.

Forgotten promises now lay, In fields where we once used to play, And in my heart, a silent cry, For love that lived, but had to die.

The Empty Garden

Our garden, once a place of bloom, Now lies in silent, empty gloom, The flowers wilted, petals torn, A testament to love forlorn.

The paths we walked, now overgrown, With memories of love once known, And in the earth, our dreams are sown, Yet nevermore, our love be shown.

Unwritten Love

In pages blank, our story lies, A tale of love that never flies, The words unsaid, the dreams undone, A romance lost, a setting sun.

The ink of love, it never dried, In letters where our hearts confide, And in the silence of the night, Our unwritten love takes flight.

A Silent Goodbye

In quiet dusk, we part our ways, A silent goodbye, no words to say, The tears we shed, a bitter rain, That falls upon our hearts’ refrain.

Our paths diverge in twilight’s hue, With broken hearts, yet love so true, And in the stillness, shadows weep, For promises we could not keep.

Shattered Harmony

Our love, a melody so sweet, Now shattered notes in incomplete, A symphony of dreams that died, In silence where our hopes reside.

The harmony we once did know, Is lost in dissonance and woe, And in the echoes of our song, I search for where we went so wrong.

Fleeting Moments

The moments we did share, so brief, Are now but whispers in the grief, A fleeting touch, a stolen kiss, A love that’s lost in bitter mist.

And though the memories do fade, Our love, in shadows, is displayed, A fleeting glimpse of what could be, In dreams that haunt both you and me.

The Fading Flame

Our love, a flame that once burned bright, Now flickers in the dark of night, The passion lost, the warmth now cold, A story that remains untold.

The embers glow in twilight’s care, A symbol of the love we share, Yet as the night consumes the light, Our fading flame is lost from sight.

Whispers of the Wind

The wind, it carries whispers sweet, Of love we knew, yet could not keep, In every breeze, your touch I feel, A ghostly presence, so surreal.

The whispers fade in morning’s glow, Yet in my heart, they linger so, A love that once did fill the air, Now lost in whispers of despair.

The Last Embrace

In twilight’s glow, our love does fade, A final kiss, a soft parade, Of memories that gently fall, In echoes of our love’s last call.

Our hearts, once bound by love’s sweet grace, Now parting ways in this embrace, And though we walk on separate shores, Our love remains forevermore.
