Fading Always

We once stood at the edge of forever,
Where time held us in a fragile breath,
The world vanished beneath our feet,
Yet even forever surrenders to death.

You held me close like a fleeting dream,
A moment etched in fragile skin,
But dreams dissolve with the rise of dawn,
And nothing remains where we begin.

Now the silence stretches between us,
An ocean built on words unsaid,
We drift apart with every tide,
Yet echoes of us remain in my head.

For even in the quiet we’ve become,
A part of you lingers, carved in my soul,
These scars will always carry our love,
For not every story needs to be whole.
