Broken Verses

The Last Goodbye

In the stillness of the night, A whisper soft, a fading light, Your voice, it lingers in the air, A final word, a silent prayer.

The stars bear witness to our pain, As tears fall down like summer rain, A love once fierce, now torn apart, Leaves echoes in this shattered heart.

Shattered Mirror

A mirror cracked, reflections lost, Each fragment bearing love's great cost, We once were whole, a seamless pair, Now broken shards lay everywhere.

Your smile, a ghost within the glass, Reminds me of the love we had, But now those smiles are fractured lines, Etched deeply by our sad goodbyes.

Fading Photograph

On dusty shelves, our memories fade, In photographs where joy once stayed, Your laughter now a distant sound, In silence, sorrow’s depths are found.

The ink of love begins to blur, Each image losing its allure, And I, the keeper of the past, Am haunted by what could not last.

Whispered Lies

Sweet whispers turned to bitter lies, The truth revealed in tear-filled eyes, A trust betrayed, a bond undone, The painful knowledge we can’t outrun.

Your words, like daggers, pierce my soul, Each lie a wound that takes its toll, And in the silence of the night, I’m left alone to face the fight.

Eclipsed Love

Our love, once bright as morning sun, Is now eclipsed, the light undone, A shadow cast on what we knew, The darkness born from losing you.

In twilight’s grip, I wander blind, The memories of you I find, Are fading echoes in the mist, Of love’s sweet touch I sorely miss.

Silent Tears

In quiet moments, tears do fall, Unseen, unheard, they tell it all, The pain of love that’s slipped away, The hope that’s lost, the dreams that fray.

Each tear, a whisper of the heart, A silent scream from love’s depart, And in the depths of night’s embrace, I long to see your gentle face.

Empty Promises

The promises we made in vain, Now echoes in an empty frame, A love that once was filled with light, Now shadows dance in endless night.

The vows we spoke, now hollow words, Are carried off like fleeting birds, And in the wake of love’s demise, I’m left with naught but silent cries.

Broken Dreams

Our dreams, like castles built on sand, Have crumbled at love’s harsh demand, Each grain a memory of you, A life we dreamed that won’t come true.

The future we had once conceived, Is lost to time, a heart deceived, And as I sift through love’s remains, I’m haunted by unspoken pains.

Lost at Sea

Adrift upon the sea of tears, Our love is lost, and so are years, The waves of sorrow pull me down, In waters deep, I slowly drown.

Your face, a distant memory, A lighthouse lost across the sea, And in the darkness of the night, I search for you, my guiding light.

The Empty Room

The room we shared, now cold and bare, Holds memories of love once there, Your laughter, like a ghostly song, In emptiness, it lingers on.

The bed we slept in, side by side, Now feels like miles, a great divide, And in the echoes of this space, I yearn for one last warm embrace.
