In the quiet shadows of your yesterday,  
Where love once flourished, now echoes stay.  
You gave your heart, a vibrant flame,  
Woven in moments, you played his name.  

But love can feel fragile, a delicate strand,  
Nurturing warmth while leaving you unplanned.  
You wanted to treat him better, to shine,  
Yet your heart feels lost, a heaviness divine.  

Still, you know you’re a garden, reclaiming your youth,  
Though one flower has faded, new blooms hold truth.  
In this ache, remind yourself, it’s okay to grieve,  
To honor the love you had, and still believe.  

When you’re ready to open, to leap once more,  
Trust in the journey and all it has in store.  
For within you lies beauty, deep and profound,  
A heart full of love, waiting to be found.  

With each step you take, seek your own peace,  
Knowing love isn’t lost; it will one day bring release.  
In the echoes of your heart, you’ll find your way,  
Embracing your story, your own special way.
