Learning to Mend

In the quiet of the night, I sit alone,

Memories of laughter echo through this home.

Faces fade like shadows, once so near,

But in my heart, I hold them dear.

A familiar smile, once a guiding light,

Now it’s just a specter, lost in the fight.

Thought we’d stand together, through thick and thin,

But now I’m tracing footsteps, wondering where you’ve been.

I look to the stars, searching for a sign,

Trusting my heart to learn how to align.

With the friendships that remain, fierce and true,

They lift me up and help me break through.

So here’s to all the love that never fades,

To those who stood beside me in the heavy rains.

I miss my mum, her gentle embrace,

But in every smile, I see her grace.

Days pass slowly, with echoes of the past,

Each laugh, each tear, for memories that last.

In the heart of the storm, I found my way,

Through friends who believed in brighter days.

I’m learning to trust, brick by brick,

Building my walls, strong and thick.

With the laughter of friends, I hear her song,

In the symphony of love, where I belong.

So here’s to all the love that never fades,

To those who stood beside me in the heavy rains.

I miss my mum, her gentle embrace,

But in every smile, I see her grace.

Through the shadows of doubt, I’ll rise again,

With love in my heart, I’m learning to mend.

Every moment of pain, every tear that I’ve shed,

Is a step toward healing, where hope is bred.

So here I stand, with an open heart,

Ready to trust, ready to start.

In the memories of those who held me close,

I find my strength, and I cherish them the most.

I love you
