I watched you fade without a sound,

Love still echoing all around.

You left like wind through open doors,

But I still trace your shape in floors.

I loved you—quiet, deep, and true.

Even when I knew I’d lose.

No goodbye, no last look through…

I just stood there.

I loved you.

Your ghost still lingers in the light,

I whisper you into the night.

You’re gone, but still, I feel the sting,

Of all the love I couldn’t bring.

I loved you—quiet, deep, and true…

And I still do.

You didn’t stay—

But I did too.

I loved you.
