A Last Whisper to Us

Even when the sky is cracked and grey,
Adoring arms can’t hold what’s meant to part.
Ghosts of your voice dissolve into the day,
Left behind, a hollowed aching heart.

Oceans of grief drown the words unsaid,
Fractured time blurs love into decay.
Grief gnaws softly where our dreams have fled,
Memories fade like ghosts at bay.

Days pass, but the ache still won’t die,
Yesterday’s tears whisper a last goodbye.
