Shapes and Shadows

We've spoken a thousand whispered words

Eyes locked, secrets exchanged in silence

And in that gaze, I forgot to breathe

Lost in the rhythm of our heartbeats

I've read your thoughts like ancient scrolls

Traced your steps across constellations

Studied your lips, each syllable a universe

And savored your words like forbidden fruit

Your feelings, a symphony of notes

Sorrows and joys entwined like ivy

We drove side by side, wind as our witness

Or you clung to my back, our laughter echoing

Held you close, cooed lullabies to the night

Wished for love to bloom, petals unfurling

We loved fiercely, like flames licking the sky

Yet fate sifted us apart, grains of sand slipping away

Grains of sand slipping away

I read to you, tales woven from stardust

Watched movies in flickering shadows

Our hearts synced to the rhythm of film reels

A cinema of memories etched in time

I admired your hands, delicate as petals

Wished to kiss your little feet, map constellations

Held you on my shoulder, Atlas with a purpose

Counted your breaths, each one a universe expanding

And as you slept, dreams painted your canvas

I adored you in sunshine's golden hues

Raindrops tapped our window, whispered secrets

Held you close, cooed lullabies to the night

Wished for love to bloom, petals unfurling

We loved fiercely, like flames licking the sky

Yet fate sifted us apart, grains of sand slipping away

But in the rain's soft cadence, I find solace

Whispers of our story carried by the breeze

Love's echo lingers, a melody unfinished

In the quiet ache of memories, we remain free

Free

And as you slept, dreams painted your canvas

I adored you as a melody unfinished

In the quiet ache of memories, we remain free
