Still Missing You: A Poem of Lingering Echoes

I told myself the ache would fade with time, That days would learn to live without your name. But the silence keeps calling you mine, And each ordinary moment feels the same. Your laughter lingers in the corners of my room, Like a melody you forgot to take away. I reach for words that ended far too soon, Only to find my heart still in delay. I move through days that ask me nothing at all, Yet my soul knows every reason why. It’s not just distance that wounds so raw— It’s the absence of “us” beneath the sky. All the while you were here, We shared our dreams and every view. Now every breath reminds me clear: I am still, so deeply, missing you.
