Quote: "“I love you and that’s the beginning and end of everything.” — F. Scott Fitzgerald1.
As soon as I came home,
She waited by the door,
No inkling of when I'd roam,
Love's footsteps yearning for more.
Thoughts of love, they dance, unsure,
Caged desires like a bird's sweet cries,
She longed to break free, to procure,
Yet deep love kept her ties.
Now, no one's there, just the floor,
I wait, doorbells silent chimes,
In solitude, I explore,
Echoes of love in these times.
In the stillness of the night's embrace,
I seek solace, finding grace.
Memories dance, a bittersweet song,
Echoes of love, once so strong.
Alone I stand, yet not alone,
For love's essence I've ever known.
Though she may not be by my side,
Her love in my heart will forever abide.
Through the silence, whispers of love,
Echoes from the heavens above.
In each moment, I find my way,
Guided by love's eternal ray.
