In the silence of the night, I hear your voice,
Whispering softly like a distant star.
Your laughter echoes in the empty halls,
A melody that lingers, though you are far.

The days are long, the nights are cold,
Without your warmth to light the way.
The world feels vast, and I feel small,
Lost in the shadows, yearning for yesterday.

Your wisdom, your love, your guiding hand,
Are memories that time cannot erase.
Though you are gone, you live within,
In every smile, in every tear-streaked face.

I’ll carry on, with you in my heart,
Your spirit a beacon, a light in the dark.
In the echoes of your absence, I find my strength,
To honor your legacy, to embark on life’s long arc.
