In the quiet of my solitude, Where shadows dance and dreams elude, An echo of a heart once full, Now whispers in the endless lull.The night, a cold and hollow friend, No warmth or light it can extend, Just silence draped in heavy gloom, A solitary, lonesome room.Memories, like ghosts, appear, Wistful smiles and distant cheer, Yet in this moment, stark and true, The emptiness comes into view.The world outside moves on, unkind, Leaving me to fall behind, With only tears for company, In this vast, unending sea.Hope feels like a distant shore, A place I knew, but know no more, Adrift, I seek a distant star, To find a way to where you are.But till then, alone I tread, In paths of sorrow, deeply fed, A heart that aches, a soul that roams, In search of love, and finding homes.
