Fading Echoes

In the quiet hours, when shadows roam,

A heavy heart, far from home.

Lost in memories, lost in pain,

Longing for a touch, longing in vain.

Echoes of laughter, now distant cries,

Tears that fall from weary eyes.

A void that lingers, an ache so deep,

In the lonely hours, it's hard to sleep.

Each passing moment, a silent plea,

To hold you close, to set you free.

But time slips by, and you're not here,

Just memories left, to hold dear.

A love once cherished, now torn apart,

Leaving behind a shattered heart.

In the echoes of your absence, I roam,

Forever lost, without you, home.
