Echoes of longing

I never wanted things to change
But fate had other plans, and now you're gone.
It pains me to let you go
To live your life without me, though I know.

I want the best for you, always
Though my heart aches with every passing day.
I dream of you, and my heart beats true
Longing for what we had, and what we once knew.

The way it ended still haunts me
A bittersweet reminder of what could never be.
My heart, already broken, breaks anew
Knowing I'm just a memory, and no longer true.

I check my phone, just in case
Hoping against hope that you'll reach out, and we'll reconnect in this space.
Though I know it's unlikely, I hold on to the thought
Of that someday, when you'll call, and my heart will be whole.
