Mournful Shattered Romance

Melancholic Heartache

In the shadows of our memories, where love once bloomed,

Faded echoes of laughter now are silently entombed.

A symphony of sighs plays in the empty spaces,

As your absence lingers in our once-shared embraces.

The moon weeps softly, a witness to our goodbye,

Stars shimmer with tears, as if they too can't deny.

A love story unraveling, like pages torn and worn,

In the book of us, where melancholy is reborn.

Your whispers linger in the breeze, haunting my dreams,

A bittersweet serenade, tearing at the seams.

The fragrance of your essence, a ghost in the air,

A love that once flourished, now a heartache to bear.

The sunsets we painted with hues of endless desire,

Now bleed into darkness, consumed by the fire.

The echoes of your laughter, now a silent refrain,

A melody of heartbreak, drowning in the rain.

I trace the constellations, seeking your face,

Lost in the vastness of time and space.

The echoes of "forever" still whisper in my ear,

But the silence between us is all too clear.

In the gallery of memories, your portrait hangs,

A masterpiece of love, where heartache now clangs.

I dance with shadows, in the ballroom of our past,

A solo waltz, where our love couldn't last.

The remnants of our story, etched in the night,

Fading like stars in the soft morning light.

I reach for your warmth, but you're no longer there,

A sad love song, sung in the cold, empty air.

As the final notes of our love song fade away,

I'll hold onto the ache, in the silence where you stay.

A sad love song, etched in the echoes of goodbye,

A requiem for us, beneath the starry sky.

Tears like raindrops, falling from the skies,

Our love, a beautiful wreckage, beneath the moon's cries.

Promises shattered, like glass on the cold floor,

A sad love story, we can't rewrite anymore.
