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
