When Love Became a Memory
A spark began to fade,
A whisper of forever, now lost in the shade.
You said, “I’ll catch you,” as I danced on the edge,
But fears of my burdens built an unspoken wedge.
I’m not perfect; I stumbled, in the shadows I dwelled,
Hiding my troubles, afraid they might grow.
You held out your hand, a beacon so bright,
Yet I was too lost to see your true light.
Was I just a dreamer, weaving tales in the air?
A villain in your story, caught in despair.
I loved you passionately, would’ve given my all,
But in my chaos, I built up the wall.
You promised to catch me, but I let my fears grow,
Trapped in my worries, I pushed you away, though.
I thought love was simple, a thread we could weave,
But I was a nightmare, lost in make-believe.
Now the thread that connected us fades into night,
I long for your happiness, your smile, your light.
You moved like a shadow, slowly drifting away,
While I lingered in echoes of words I couldn’t say.
Now I’m left with the silence, the weight of goodbye,
Holding onto memories while I silently cry.
If happiness finds you, I’ll suffer in peace,
A love that was everything now brings only grief.
Though you’ve moved on your memories remain
a bittersweet echo in love's gentle strains
I’ll cherish the moments, no matter the pain.
