In the twilight whispers, your words softly fell,
A tender confession, a bittersweet spell.
How could I bear the thought of you gone,
When every heartbeat sings your name, my dawn?
You speak of sorrow, a shadow that looms,
Yet, darling, your love is what brightly blooms.
In every embrace, I felt the world cease,
In the warmth of your gaze, I found my peace.
Yes, I know your heart aches, your spirit feels torn,
But love is a garden where hope can be born.
Together we’ve danced through the storms and the rain,
And I’d hold you forever, through joy and through pain.
I cherish the moments where our souls intertwine,
Each laugh and each tear, a treasure divine.
Though you fear you’re not enough, hear this plea:
In my eyes, you’re the universe, my heart’s melody.
So if you must go, let it not be in sorrow,
For love’s gentle whispers promise a tomorrow.
I’ll carry your essence, no distance can sever,
In the tapestry of time, you’ll be mine forever.
So take with you this, my unwavering vow,
You are more than enough, my love, here and now.
And if paths do diverge and we wander apart,
Know you’ll always reside in the depths of my heart.
