Echo of Your Name

Haunted by the echo of your name.

Fragile like a window in the rain.

I held every promise to the flame.

Watched it turn to smoke and fade away.

You spoke in silver,

hid

the blade. I saw

the truth

way too late.

Bittersweet, the love we couldn't save.

Deceptive light beneath the waves!

Poisoned hearts still beating in the dark.

Haunted by the ashes of our spark.

Unpolished words were all I had

You made the broken feel less bad

But every kiss concealed a crack every road led further back.

You wore forgiveness like a face

Then left without a trace.

Bittersweet, the love we couldn't save.

Deceptive light beneath the wave!

Poisoned hearts still beating in the dark.

Haunted by the ashes of our spark.

Now I gather pieces from the floor.

I don't need your shadows anymore!

Fragile doesn't mean I cannot heal.

Even ghosts can learn to disappear.
