As days unfurl their silent march,
I find myself amidst life's arch,
Growing, learning, evolving still,
Yet your presence lingers, a tranquil chill.
Each dawn brings lessons new,
From the depths of joy to skies of blue,
But amid this journey, one truth stands strong,
Memories of you, a quiet song.
It's not regret that holds me bound,
Nor love's tender chains that surround,
What keeps me distant, held at bay,
Is a deeper wisdom, a price to pay.
For to draw near, to touch your soul,
I must heed the echoes, the stories untold,
Of lives intertwined, of hearts at stake,
A delicate balance, no step to break.
In this dance of fate and circumstance,
I tread with caution, a wary glance,
Not to cause harm, nor sow despair,
But to cherish the moments we once shared.
As days go by, I contemplate,
The paths we chose, the hands of fate,
And though apart, our spirits entwine,
In the tapestry of love's design.
For love transcends the here and now,
It whispers softly, a timeless vow,
To honor truth, to nurture grace,
In every heart's sacred space.
So as days go by and years unfold,
I hold your essence, a treasure untold,
In the chambers of my grateful heart,
Where love's presence shall never depart.
