Love Poem: The stars weep light

The stars weep light

In the quiet of the night, silence echoes dear,
Your absence like a shadow, ever drawing near.
The stars weep light, tears of ancient lore,
For the one I once held, I hold no more.

Your voice, a whisper now, fading in the wind,
Memories a shackle, of dreams that start to bind.
In the garden of my heart, petals withered cold,
I wander through the thorns, stories left untold.

Seasons paint the world in hues of gray and blue,
Lost within the hours, where time forgets you.
In every clock’s soft tick, in every dawn's gray hue,
I chase the fallen moments, the fragments of us two.

Oceans rage within me, waves of sorrow's crest,
Your touch, a ghostly warmth, a haunting in my chest.
What cruel fate has parted paths, that once would intertwine,
Leaving me a hollow tree, where love no longer climbs.

Songs of yesterday, whispers on the breeze,
Echo in the canyon, bringing me to my knees.
And though I walk this road, alone and feeling small,
I carry you within me, my sweetest love, my all.
