Shadows of Love

Whispered echoes in the dark

Silent shadows leave their mark

Love's a flame that burns so bright

But too close, it ignites the night

Faded photographs, a trembling hand

Lost in dreams where I can't stand

Hearts collide, then fall apart

Love's sweet poison, a shattered heart

Every touch, a thorn that bleeds

Every kiss, a loss in need

Held so tight, then let it go

Love's the pain I can't outgrow

Love hurts, like a thousand scars

Healing wounds beneath the stars

Fighting through the tearing pain

Hoping love will find its way again

Empty rooms, whisper your name

Memories that ignite the flame

Promises that fade to gray

Love's sweet ache that stays each day

Every smile, a broken vow

Every end, a silent scream

Caught within this endless fight

Love's the fire in the night

Love hurts, like a thousand scars

Healing wounds beneath the stars

Fighting through the tearing pain

Hoping love will find its way again

But still, I hold on tight

To what we had in flight

Through the hurt and the despair

Love's worth every tear, every prayer

Love hurts, but I still believe

In the pain, in the ache, in the grief

For without pain, how would I know

Love is real, and it will grow
