In the silence where laughter once bloomed,
Echoes of friendship now softly fade,
A tapestry of memories gently loomed,
Yet threads of trust silently frayed.

Once we danced in the light of shared dreams,
Our hearts beating in synchronized time,
Now shadows linger where warmth once gleamed,
And words unspoken build walls we climb.

In the spaces between our conversations,
Lies the ghost of what we used to be,
Promises lost in vague hesitations,
A friendship adrift, set free by the sea.

Yet in the remnants of our connection,
A silent hope still dares to arise,
For even in the depths of reflection,
New growth can bloom where old friendship lies.
