Lost a Teeth

A tooth fell away, a part of me gone,

Like a leaf in autumn, at the break of dawn.

It left behind an empty space,

A silent reminder of time's slow pace.

Where it once stood, strong and bright,

Now there's a gap, a shadowed light.

The smile is altered, incomplete,

A missing piece that time will meet.

Memories linger of days before,

When every bite was something more.

But now I tread with cautious care,

Yet life goes on, in its own way,

To cherish what’s lost, and what’s earned.
