Till my last breath, I will

Yesterday I saw you in my dream,

Glowing bright, a soft, silver beam.

Just as lovely as you used to be,

Smiling there — right there beside me.

I miss your hugs, your laugh, your grace,

The way you used to light each place.

You hold a space no one else can fill —

I love you deeply, and I always will.

I wish you joy in all you do,

And hope the world stays kind to you.

I miss the days we danced through time,

The quiet jokes, the secret rhymes.

Yes, I feel the sting, I feel the ache,

When I see you smile for someone fake.

It pulls me back to you and me,

To what I thought was meant to be.

I long for things to feel the same,

But life moves on — I can’t place blame.

Still, disbelief sits in my chest —

I once believed in you the best.

Your chapter closed much sooner than planned,

But every moment with you will stand.

Thank you for the gift of time you gave,

For every memory I’ll always save.

My deepest regret is that we’re apart,

Yet you live forever in my heart.

I know you’ll shine — even without me —

Still losing you cuts endlessly.

I’ll love you now and forevermore,

Even when my days are no more.

If ever you feel lost or cold,

Call on me — my arms will hold.

I’m not angry, only quietly torn,

That once again I chose the wrong to adorn.

I wanted a happy ending, whole and real,

But life wrote stories I could not seal.

I love you, bestie — I always will,

In every silence, in every thrill.

Till my last breath, near or far,

You’ll be my brightest, guiding star.
