In the silence where laughter used to dwell,
Echoes of memories, bittersweet, swell.
Once we walked paths in harmony’s light,
Now shadows whisper in the quiet night.

Promises traded in the warmth of trust,
Now lie forgotten, gathering dust.
Words once shared with ease and grace,
Now lost in time, an empty space.

The seasons changed, as did we,
Drifting apart like leaves from a tree.
A glance, a smile, once enough to ignite,
Now fades like stars in morning’s light.

Yet in the heart’s hidden chamber, deep,
The friendship’s embers quietly sleep.
Though distance may keep us apart,
The echoes remain within the heart.
