I am a lighthouse with no ship to guide
Shining my love into an empty tide

Your goodbye was a seed planted in stone
It grows into pain whenever I am alone

My voice trembles when I speak your name
As if my lips still remember the flame

I fold your memories like paper cranes
Each one carrying the weight of my pains

I am the wound that time refuses to heal
A living reminder of what pain can feel

The stars we named together still burn above
Indifferent to the ruins of our love

I trusted you with my most fragile part
You held it carelessly, this foolish heart

You broke me so gently I didn't even know
Until I tried to stand and felt the blow

The coffee grows cold, just like your love
I sip on memories that I can't let go of

The morning fog reminds me of your embrace
Beautiful, fleeting, impossible to trace

Like a ship with a broken compass at sea
I am lost in the storm of losing you and me

I wear my loneliness like a second skin
It fits so perfectly, I forget where I begin

I collect the broken pieces of my dreams
And try to stitch them back along the seams

Like winter claiming the last green leaf
Your departure brought me nothing but grief

The pen refuses to write happy endings
When all it knows is the art of heart bending

The garden of trust you burned to the ground
Now only ashes of betrayal can be found

My tears water the graves of dead tomorrows
Planted with seeds of everlasting sorrow

I am the forgotten verse of a once-great song
Left behind when the music moved along

My love was a garden you refused to tend
Now only weeds grow where roses used to bend

You took the music when you walked out the door
Now silence is all I hear forevermore

The world moves on but I am standing still
At the corner where you said you never will

My heart is a lantern with no light inside
The flame died the moment you stepped aside

I am the ruins of a castle you once admired
Stone by stone, your absence left me tired

I gave you the key to my fortress of trust
You opened every door and turned it to dust

Like a river that forgot the way to the sea
I flow without direction since you left me

You taught me love was a battlefield of lies
Where the wounded never truly say goodbye

The bed feels wider since you left your side
An ocean of emptiness with nowhere to hide

You were my north star, now I wander blind
Through a wilderness of memories left behind

I found your lies hidden in every sweet word
A symphony of deceit that I willingly heard

My footsteps echo in halls where we once danced
Now I waltz alone with a heart entranced

My scars tell stories that my smile conceals
Of a love so deep that it never truly heals

Your love was a storm I danced in willingly
Now lightning strikes where peace used to be

I am a prisoner in the cell of your memory
Every thought of you is both the lock and key

The walls of my room have memorized my cries
They hold more truth than your sweet alibis

I am drowning in a sea of what could have been
Every wave pulls me deeper into the unseen

You were the chapter I should have skipped
But the pages of my heart refused to be ripped

You erased yourself from my future plans
But your fingerprints remain on my shaking hands

The dawn breaks but my night never ends
I am surrounded by ghosts pretending to be friends

I painted your portrait with colors of hope
But the canvas tore and I could no longer cope

My heart still sets a place for you at the table
Even though I know you are no longer able

The wind carries whispers of our yesterday
But yesterday is a country I can no longer stay

The distance between us is not measured in miles
But in unspoken words and forgotten smiles

My reflection asks me questions I cannot answer
Like how did love become this silent cancer

I speak to your ghost every night before sleep
Whispering promises I was too broken to keep

I am the half-written song on a dusty shelf
Unfinished because you took the melody yourself

I held on so tight that my hands started to bleed
Yet you slipped away like a scattered seed

I learned that silence can shatter like glass
When the one you love becomes part of the past

The autumn leaves fall like pieces of my soul
Scattered by winds that made me less than whole
