I’m Done With Life
In the golden glow of dawn’s embrace,
Where laughter danced like sunlight on the lake,
I wander through the garden of our days,
Each petal a memory, each smile a breath I take.
We traced the stars in midnight’s tender sigh,
With whispered dreams woven in the tangles of our hair,
Your hand in mine, we painted the skies,
Building castles in the air, floating without a care.
Oh, the soft serenade of the summer breeze,
Moments like fireflies, brilliant in their flight—
We were caught in a tapestry, woven with ease,
Every thread a joy, each shade a spark of light.
But seasons turned, as all seasons do,
The laughter faded, replaced by silence’ toll.
The colors dimmed, once vivid and true,
Leaves of memories scattered, taking their toll.
Once, I marveled at the way time entwined,
But now it drapes like a shroud on my heart,
A haunting echo of love left behind,
Soft whispers of joy that have long since depart.
I remember your voice, a melody sweet,
But now it lingers like a ghost in the night,
Every note a reminder of what was once complete,
Now all that remains is a fading twilight.
The weight of each moment, a burden to bear,
I reach for the laughter but grasp nothing but air.
Hope flickers dimly, a candle in gloom,
And shadows grow larger, encroaching my room.
The stars that once promised, now seem so far,
A desolate sky, a memory marred.
With every heartbeat, I drift further away—
In the silence, I linger, lost in decay.
Once, I dreamed of a life filled with grace,
But the mirror reflects only sorrow’s cold face,
I breathe in the echoes, each breath full of strife,
And slowly, I whisper, “I’m ready to leave life.”
So here at the edge, where shadows entwine,
I cradle the whispers of a love left behind.
The beauty has faded, the colors gone grey,
In the stillness, I surrender, and gently fade away.
