In the quiet corners of my mind,
Where whispers of you still reside,
I find solace in the echoes,
Of a friendship time couldn’t divide.

The days grow long as shadows stretch,
Yet your laughter lingers on,
A melody in the wind’s gentle touch,
Even though you’ve long been gone.

We walked paths both rough and smooth,
Sharing dreams and secret fears,
Now I tread alone, but never lose,
The warmth of our shared years.

Though the distance now is vast,
And silence fills the space,
In my heart, you’ll always last,
A cherished, irreplaceable grace.
