In the quiet corners of my heart,
Lingers the whisper of your laughter,
Like echoes that fade in the dark,
A melody lost in the rafters.

Once we walked in sunlit days,
Carving dreams on time’s soft clay,
Now shadows dance where light once played,
In the silence, I find my way.

Memories weave a tapestry,
Threads of joy and threads of pain,
Yet your absence is a mystery,
A chapter closed, a lingering strain.

Though paths diverge and stories end,
In my heart, you still reside,
A friend lost, but never forgotten,
In the echoes where love abides.
