Fading Keepsake

I counted every sunrise,

every sleepless night,

Believing we'd find our way back to the light.

Held onto every promise,

every word you said,

Now I'm left with echoes running through my head.

I don't know where we lost our way,

Or if there's anything left to save.

Was it worth the wait,

or is it over?

Are we just two hearts growing colder?

Did we fight for something that slipped away,

Or were we only holding onto yesterday?

Tell me now before it's too late—

Was it worth the wait,

or is it over?

Every memory still lingers in the air,

Like a song that keeps on playing when you're not there.

I searched for hope inside the silence we became,

But every answer sounds the same.

If this is goodbye,

don't leave me wondering why,

If there's still a spark,

don't let it slowly die.

I'd rather know the truth than chase a fading flame,

Even if tomorrow never looks the same.

Was it worth the wait,

or is it over?

Can we still find our way back to each other?

Or has the story reached its final page,

Leaving only shadows where we used to stay?

One last question before I walk away—

Was it worth the wait...

or is it over?

Was it even over
