peace

In the quiet of the evening, when the stars refuse to show, I’m tangled in the memories of a love I used to know. Whispers of your laughter still linger in the air, But now the silence echoes with a deep and empty stare. Tears fall like rain, washing over yesterday, In the ruins of my heart where your shadow used to stay. Every song we danced to, every promise left behind, Is a ghost that haunts the corners of this weary, restless mind. The photographs are faded, and the letters turned to dust, Yet every word we shared is a wound that’s never just. I walk the same old streets, but they’re colder than before, Each step a reminder of the love that I adore. Tears fall like rain, washing over yesterday, In the ruins of my heart where your shadow used to stay. Every song we danced to, every promise left behind, Is a ghost that haunts the corners of this weary, restless mind. And I wonder if you think of me when the night is deep and still, Or if you’ve found a way to love again, and time has made you heal. But here I am, a prisoner of the dreams we used to chase, Trapped within a heartache that I can’t seem to erase. Tears fall like rain, washing over yesterday, In the ruins of my heart where your shadow used to stay. Every song we danced to, every promise left behind, Is a ghost that haunts the corners of this weary, restless mind. In the quiet of the evening, when the stars refuse to show, I’m still tangled in the echoes of a love I’ll never know. Though the night keeps whispering your name into the breeze, I’m lost in the sadness, searching for some peace.
