Fragments of us

In the attic where the dust collects light

I found your letters glowing in the night

Ink faded but the words still burn

Every page whispers of a love unreturned

The wind steals pieces of the life we knew

Scattering echoes of me and you

Between each line

A tremble

A scar

Tracing the distance of how far we are

Fragments of us

They drift and fall

Between the silence

I hear it all

Every goodbye you didn't send

Every hello that didn't mend

The violins play as tears descend

Each note a memory I can't defend

Your voice lingers like a haunting song

A love misplaced where it doesn’t belong

Piano keys hum our broken tune

Under the gaze of a watchful moon

Strings of fate tied knots in vain

Left us drowning in separate rain

Fragments of us

They drift and fall

Between the silence

I hear it all

Every goodbye you didn't send

Every hello that didn't mend
