Embers of us

I watch the sky in painted light,

The sun departs, a soft goodnight

A heavy sigh escapes my chest,

As dusk invites the day to rest

The heavens glow in gold and red,

A quiet tale left unsaid 

A story fading into night 

In amber gold and crimson light. 

With every breath, the sky turns dim,

Its shadows stir a storm within.

A silent war, a distant ache 

Of all the paths I did not take. 

Tears slip down in quiet streams,

Carrying traces of lost dreams.

The weight too vast, the ache too deep,

It bends me where I stand to weep 

Two souls once tied, now lost in time,

Drifting far on separate lines 

Yet in their hearts, like embers bright

Their memories whisper in the night
