Silhouette

Below the canvas of starlit skies
A tale of yearning softly sighs
The memories of you hunts my mind
In this melancholic heart
Your absence is alive

Moonlight casts its shadows
Dancing on my skin
A lonesome waltz begins
With the ghost of what has been
The whispers of the night
They weave a tale of woe
Onto the book of solitude
The chapters seem to grow

Through the mist of tears
I see a distant shore
But these walls stand tall
A silent war where I've been for so long

In the corners of my mind
Images of you I often find
A silhouette etched in time
A love once vivid
Now a faded rhyme
The echo of your laughter, a gentle rain
Yet it leaves me drenched in pain

And everything turns blurred
When I look at you
But you're already six feet too far
The echo of your laughter

In dreams we waltz in a shadowed hall
But dawn breaks, and I'm left to recall
In dreams we waltz in a shadowed hall
But dawn breaks, and I'm left to recall
The warmth of your touch
The echo of your voice
Between these walls
I've made my choice

In the corners of my mind
Images of you I often find
A silhouette etched in time
A love once vivid
Now a faded rhyme
The echo of your laughter, a gentle rain
Yet it leaves me drenched in pain
