In the quiet corners of my heart,
Your laughter lingers, a bittersweet refrain,
Shadows of your smile dance in the dark,
A tender echo of joy and pain.

The world feels colder, a shade more gray,
With every sunrise, a reminder of loss,
Memories of you, like stars in the day,
Hidden by light, yet never at cost.

Nights are longer, filled with silent screams,
Your absence, a void too vast to fill,
Dreams of you, woven in moonbeams,
A solace, a balm, a bittersweet thrill.

Though you are gone, your spirit remains,
In every breath, in every tear,
A part of me, entwined with your chains,
Forever missed, forever near.
