Lost in the Haze

In twilight's whisper, shadows play
Echoes of you, in endless sway
A lonely heart, in vacant space
A soul adrift, in a forgotten place

Memories linger, like autumn's haze
Fragrant with pain, in endless daze
Each breath a sigh, each step a crawl
Through life's monotony, without your call

The city's noise, a cacophony
A blur of faces, no one sees me
In crowded streets, I'm lost and cold
A stranger to joy, a tale untold

In mirrored eyes, reflections stare
A ghostly figure, with emptiness to share
The weight of nights, in darkened rooms
Where tears fall silent, and no one looms

Time moves onward, in relentless stride
Leaving behind, what we once tied
Love's fragile threads, now frayed and worn
In this abyss, I'm left forlorn

The stars above, a distant gleam
A celestial map, to a love extreme
But like a compass, lost at sea
I wander blind, where love used to be

In dreams I see, what could've been
Paths diverged, where hearts once blended
The ache of what, we let slip away
A whispered regret, in endless gray

The night descends, with its velvet shroud
Stars are lamps, in a forgotten crowd
I trace the patterns, of a broken map
Leading me nowhere, in this city's trap

No crescendo here, just quiet breaths
Of life's indifference, to loves' debts
Yet in this stillness, fragments align
A makeshift peace, where broken things entwine
