A Shadow That Remains




Your thoughts came back again today,
A whisper from the past, a soft ballet.
I searched through memories, old and worn,
Hoping to find you, as once I had sworn.

I traced each moment, each laughter and tear,
Through fading moments, I drew you near.
But the picture blurred, it slipped away,
Like a dream at dawn, too faint to stay.

I spent my heart, I spent my mind,
Searching the corners where you'd been confined.
But in the haze, I saw a glimpse,
A shadow of you, like a fleeting wisp.

If I had an eye to see your beauty,
I’d paint you in strokes of truth and duty.
The lines you wore, the smile, the grace,
All etched forever, a perfect trace.

Yet still, I remember, though the image is faint,
The essence of you, with no need for restraint.
Even as time erases the trace,
The feeling of you lingers in space.

A friend, a moment, a love that still gleams,
In the quiet of night and the silence of dreams.
