Stone Cold and Heartbroken
In the quiet of my lonely room,
Your laughter echoes, a distant tune,
Time zones stretch, and miles divide,
A love once close now feels like a sigh.
Letters linger, words on the screen,
Each message a hope, a flicker unseen,
Days turn to shadows, weeks follow fast,
Memories whisper of glories past.
I trace the outlines of your face,
A map of longing in every space,
Night falls heavy, the stars feel far,
Each one a promise, a lingering scar.
Phone calls bring comfort, hearts intertwined,
Yet silence breeds doubt, am I still aligned?
Time shuffles onward, its cruel design,
As we chase the clocks, your heart—half of mine.
Yet in the silence, a truth I find,
Love knows no longitude, nor ties that bind.
Though distances stretch like an unending sea,
In dreams, my darling, you’re still right here with me.
