In the quiet of the night, tears silently fall,
Memories flood in, a bittersweet recall.
Shadows of laughter, echoes of pain,
In the realm of loss, emotions reign.

Through the fog of grief, I wander alone,
Seeking solace in a world unknown.
Each step heavy, each breath a sigh,
In the silence, I ask the eternal why.

Time moves forward, yet I’m held in place,
By the phantom touch, the remembered face.
The heartache lingers, a constant ache,
In the tapestry of life, a thread that won’t break.

Yet in the sorrow, a strength is found,
In the love that remains, forever bound.
Through the tears, a glimmer of light,
In the darkest night, hope takes flight.
