In the quiet of the night, where whispers faintly sigh,
My heart is heavy, burdened by a sorrow nigh.
The stars above seem distant, their light a far-off dream,
As tears cascade like rivers, in the moon’s gentle beam.

Each memory a dagger, piercing through my soul,
The echoes of our laughter now leave a hollow hole.
The days once filled with sunshine are now a cloudy grey,
And joy feels like a stranger, who’s wandered far away.

I walk the paths we traveled, now drenched in solitude,
The silence all around me, a constant interlude.
The world moves on without me, in a dance I cannot see,
For sadness holds me captive, and won’t set my spirit free.

Yet in this depth of sorrow, a flicker of hope remains,
That one day I’ll find solace, and break these heavy chains.
Until then, I am waiting, in the shadows of my mind,
For the dawn to bring a new day, and leave the past behind.
