In Shadows

When morning breaks, and you’re not near,

The sun feels cold, the sky unclear.

Your laughter, once a warm embrace,

Now echoes in an empty space.

I wander paths we used to tread,

Where memories dance, though words unsaid.

Each step I take, a quiet sigh,

For love that left but didn’t die.

The wind that sweeps across my face,

Carries the trace of your lost grace.

In every gust, I hear your name,

A haunting call that fans the flame.

Beneath the stars, I sit alone,

Yet feel your presence in the stone.

Your voice, though silent, softly calls,

From distant lands where twilight falls.

In dreams, you come with tender light,

A fleeting touch, then fades to night.

But in my heart, you still remain,

A love that soothes the deepest pain.

Though time may try to steal your face,

Your soul remains, a timeless grace.

In every breath, I find a trace,

Of love that time cannot erase.
