Echoes of the Past

Used to be gentle, a whisper of grace

Now I see the shadows, hiding your face

Started with kindness, warm and divine

An angel in surface, love so benign

Smiles that could melt the coldest of hearts

But behind that smile, we were worlds apart

Secrets in silence, tears in disguise

Promises broken, echoing lies

What once was sweet, turned bitter and cold

Stories of love that now feel so old

My daughter’s father, what did you become?

A mirror of pain, where love's undone

You were so caring, then you turned away

Lost in the darkness of yesterday

Pregnant with hope, carrying our dreams

Now haunted by shadows, silent screams

Trust stolen like whispers in the night

Love's cruel game, lost in the fight

Fading the kindness, cloaked in disguise

Caught in the chaos, tears in our eyes

Once a sanctuary, now just regret

A heart you'd forget you ever met

My daughters father, what did you become?

A mirror of pain, where love's undone

You were so caring, then you turned away

Lost in the darkness of yesterday

Can we find the girl I used to know?

Or are those days buried deep below?

Peace in the storm, hope in the night

Seeking the dawn, searching for the light

Though wounds run deep, I still believe

In love that's real, in what we grieve

My daughters father, I hope you see

The girl I loved, the girl you used to be
