Sad me

“Mmm…”

“Feels like you’re gone, but the memories stay.”

⸻

I still see your face in the quiet night,

A thousand stars, but you’re not in sight.

I kept your letters, I kept your name,

But holding on don’t feel the same.

⸻

And I know that love’s supposed to heal,

But all I feel is what’s not real.

⸻

You’re a picture that’s fading from my hands,

A song I can’t finish, a broken plan.

I reach for your shadow, but it slips away,

And I’m left with the silence at the end of the day.

⸻

I walk through the rooms where your laughter stayed,

Empty echoes where the memories played.

I talk to the walls like they understand,

But nothing answers when I call again.

⸻

They say in time, the pain will fade,

But it lingers here like a debt unpaid.

⸻

You’re a picture that’s fading from my hands,

A song I can’t finish, a broken plan.

I reach for your shadow, but it slips away,

And I’m left with the silence at the end of the day.

⸻

I’d give the world just to turn back time,

To when your heart was still beating with mine.

But the pages turned, and I lost my place,

Now all I hold is your ghost in the space.

⸻

You’re a picture that’s fading from my hands,

A song I can’t finish, a broken plan.

I reach for your shadow, but it slips away,

And I’m left with the silence at the end of the day.

⸻

“Fading… fading…”
