ECHOES OF MEMORIES

In memories, your shadow stays,
A bittersweet reminder of love's gaze.
A treasured ache within my heart,
A sorrow that will never depart.
Your smile, a faded photograph,
A glimpse of joy, now lost in wrath.
Your laughter echoes, a haunting refrain,
A melody that brings only pain.
In dreams, I see your face so bright,
A fleeting glance, a lingering night.
My heart, a sanctuary of our past,
Where love's remnants forever will last.
I cling to memories, though you're gone,
A desperate grasp, a love that's wrong.
For in remembrance, you're still mine,
A poignant reminder of love's decline.
Time may fade, but won't erase,
The scars of love, the memories' gaze.
You left, and I remained,
A ghost of love, forever sustained.
