Fractured Bonds
Shattered Trust
In fragments of memories, our laughter lies,
A distant echo, a haunting sigh.
A bond once strong, now weakened and worn,
Trust shattered, like a mirror torn.
We once shared secrets, hopes, and fears,
But silence crept, and doubts appeared.
The whispers grew, the distance spread,
Until our friendship was left for dead.
I remember nights we stayed awake,
Sharing dreams, our hearts at stake.
But now those moments seem so rare,
A fleeting glimpse of what we once shared.
Fading Embers
The flame that once burned bright and true,
Now flickers dim, a dying hue.
The warmth that once brought us so near,
Now fades to ash, and bitter tears.
We once walked hand in hand, side by side,
Through life’s ups and downs, we’d glide.
But now the path diverges, far and wide,
Leaving me with a lonely stride.
Summer nights that once rang with delight,
Now whisper shadows, devoid of light.
Our inside jokes, our secret grin,
Lost in time, like autumn leaves within.
Lost Connections
The phone calls ceased, the texts went cold,
The silence grew, the gap unfold.
The inside jokes, the memories we shared,
Now gather dust, like relics impaired.
We once bridged distances, time zones apart,
But now the miles stretch, a heavy heart.
The laughter muted, the tears unshed,
Our connection lost, our bond now dead.
I scroll through feeds, a digital haze,
Searching for traces of our faded days.
But even social media’s silent cry,
Can’t revive what’s lost, what’s said goodbye.
Echoes of Memories
In empty spaces, I hear your voice,
A whispered promise, a heartfelt choice.
To stand together, through thick and thin,
But now the silence is all within.
The photographs yellow, the moments fade,
The smiles that once lit up the shade.
Now dimly glow, like embers grey,
reminding me of what’s gone astray.
I revisit places we once roamed,
Haunted by ghosts of our former home.
The coffee shop, the park, the street,
Where laughter echoed, now deserted and neat.
Ache of Longing
In loneliness, I search for you,
A ghostly presence, forever true.
The ache within, a hollowed space,
A longing that cannot be replaced.
I reach for your hand, but find air,
The emptiness echoes, beyond repair.
The memories linger, a bittersweet pain,
A friendship lost, a heart in vain.
Sometimes I wonder, what went wrong?
Was it me, or was it you, or both?
The questions swirl, a maddening storm,
But answers flee, like autumn’s leaves at dawn.
Acceptance
Time heals wounds, but leaves scars deep,
A reminder of what we once did keep.
The lessons learned, the love we shared,
A bittersweet reminder of what’s impaired.
I let go slowly, the grip so tight,
The hope that lingered, through endless night.
For in release, I find my peace,
A closure to our fractured release.
In shattered bonds, I find my strength,
A resilience born, from broken length.
For though our friendship ended in pain,
Its memory remains, an eternal refrain.
Yet, in shattered pieces, I find my voice,
A whispered promise, a heartfelt choice.
To rise from ashes, like a phoenix born,
To forge new bonds, and let love be reborn.
For in the fragments, I see a truth,
That friendship’s beauty lies in its youth.
Ephemeral, yet eternal in its might,
A fleeting dream, that shines through endless night.
Epilogue
As I close this chapter of my past,
I realize friendships, like seasons, pass.
Some wither, some flourish, some remain,
But all leave marks, like autumn’s stain.
though our bond broke, its memory stays,
A testament to love’s fleeting ways.
And though it hurts, I’ll hold on tight,
To the lessons learned, in that shattered light.
