From the moment I saw her,
I knew she was the one.
My chest went quiet,
My soul undone.
Her smile,
Like sunlight,
Burned through the gray.
Her voice
A hymn that led me astray.

From years of drifting, lost and blind,
I found her hand and thought it mine.
No masks.
No lies.
Just something real.
A place to land.
A wound to heal.
She was my home.
She was my breath.
She was the reason I feared death.

But like all things
That burn too clean,
She vanished fast,
Without a scene.
No final word.
No backward glance.
Just silence…
Where laughter used to dance.

Now stillness hums where love once stirred.
No laughter now.
No final word.
The nights are long,
The days are thin,
And nothing waits beyond the end.

So let it fade.
Just be still.
There’s nothing left I wish to feel.
No hand will come.
No voice will call.
Just quiet rooms
And darker halls.

Only breath,
And not for long.
Only silence,
Cold and strong.

And to this day,
I try to sleep
But with closed eyes,
She speaks to me.
Once my favorite dream to live,
Now a nightmare I can’t forgive.
Appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
