We used to dance in synchronized steps,
Our laughter harmonized, our dreams interwoven,
But now the music fades, the melody wanes,
And silence fills the void where love once thrived.

Conversations turn to whispers, then to sighs,
Our words once vibrant now lose their hue,
The warmth we shared is now a distant ember,
As shadows obscure the light we knew.

We walk on separate paths, though side by side,
A chasm grows that bridges cannot mend,
Each touch, once a promise, now feels foreign,
As we drift apart, unable to pretend.

Yet in the quiet, a lingering hope remains,
That in the ruins, seeds of love might grow,
For even when relationships fall apart,
Sometimes, from the ashes, new beginnings show.
