In the quiet corners of my mind,
Echoes of laughter once shared,
Now replaced by whispered thoughts,
Of longing and distant dreams.

Through the window, the world stands still,
Streets once alive, now hushed,
Nature reclaims its gentle reign,
As we ponder our fragile place.

Time flows like a gentle stream,
Carrying hopes and fears anew,
Yet in the silence, resilience blooms,
A testament to the human heart.

Amidst the shadows, a light persists,
Connecting souls through unseen threads,
In unity and strength we find,
The path to brighter days ahead.
