In the depths of night, your face appears

A ghost etched into my mind,

fading, yet always near

Walking down that path, leaves falling slow

The wind wrapped us in whispers low

Our laughter tangled in the cool autumn air

Those moments still alive, vivid and bare

The warmth of your touch still burns like fire

A ghostly echo of lost desire

I reach out but can’t pull you close

Consumed by shadows I know too well

Drowning in the shadows of memory

Your voice pierces through me like a scream

I know there’s no way back, no way out

This love isn’t a dream

But it’s lost in the in-between

Frozen in that photograph, our night in light

A future reflected in your eyes so bright

Now just a relic locked in time

And all our promises fade like rhyme

Every word we swore now blown away

Invisible chains holding me in decay

No matter how I scream your name

Only silence answers back the same

Drowning in the shadows of memory

A haunting echo, a twisted melody

I call your name but it fades like mist

Just an empty echo in the night,

leaving me hollow inside

I feel you here, but it’s just a trace

I whisper, “Come back,” but it’s empty space

You’re gone, just a phantom in my mind

A brutal truth that cuts through time

Drowning in the shadows of memory

Your voice pierces through me like a scream

I know there’s no way back, no way out

This love isn’t a dream

But it’s lost in the in-between

As dawn breaks, your shadow drifts away

But the scars you left are here to stay

Drowning in the shadows of our past

Even in morning light, I’m trapped by your ghost
