Eclipsed Heart

In the hollow stillness of night, Whispers of your laughter linger near, Each echo pierces the weary soul, A dagger thrusts within my chest, A wound that bleeds an endless ache, The world fades into shades of gray. Dreams once bright, now dimmed and lost, Memories swirl like autumn leaves, In the depths of sorrow I dwell, A void echoing your absence still, Love's sweet song now a haunting ache, Without you, each moment drags on. Time bends beneath this heavy weight, The sun retreats, shadows grow long, Hope flickers like a candle's flame, Loneliness tightens like a noose, Yet in this pain, your spirit lives, Forever cherished, forever missed.
