The Moment You Left Me
Your steps grew faint,
The door clicked shut.
Autumn winds chilled,
My heart was cut.
The room stood still,
Birthday lights dimmed.
Laughter once bright,
Now shadows grimmed.
Your scent lingered,
Love's thread now torn.
Night swallowed hope,
Left me forlorn.
Leaves danced outside,
A sorrowful sway.
When you walked out,
Light slipped away.

When You Walked Away

The air turned cold.

Birthday tales now old.
Your steps stole the light,
Laughter faded fast.
Moments we held close,
Could not last.

Silent rooms grew dark,
Empty within.
Leaves swayed slow,
A dance of sorrow's play.
When you walked out,
Nothing stayed.

The Last Look in Your Eyes
Your eyes met mine,
A glance so brief.
Autumn winds sighed,
Carried my grief.
Birthday lights dimmed,
As you turned away.
Love's fragile thread,
Began to fray.
No words were said,
But all was lost.
Night fell around,
Cold as the frost.
Leaves danced their last,
Under the gray skies.
Everything changed,
With the last look in your eyes.

The Silence After You
The door softly closed with a sigh,
Autumn winds swirled, bidding goodbye.
Birthday candles burned low,
As the shadows did grow,
And silence wrapped all I held high.
Your footsteps had echoed, then ceased,
In that moment, my heart was released.
The laughter once bright,
Now lost in the night,
Where your absence became my new feast.
The room where your presence once stayed,
Now a void where memories fade.
The cold autumn air,
Left the walls feeling bare,
And in silence, our love was betrayed.

A Heart in Pieces
You turned, and my heart broke that day,
Autumn leaves took my hope away.
Birthday candles grew dim,
As the light left with him,
And love shattered in disarray.
Your voice, once my comfort and guide,
Now echoes where silence resides.
The laughter we shared,
Now lost and impaired,
As tears were the only reply.
The room where we danced and we played,
Now a place where memories fade.
Green leaves outside fall,
As my heart hits the wall,
And each piece on the floor, I’ve laid.

Autumn winds, once warm, now old.
Birthday tears, love’s tale untold.
Your footsteps faded down the hall,
Echoes of laughter, now a fall.
Walls crumbled as I lost it all.
The room grew dark, the light went dim,
Memories blurred on a fragile whim.
A goodbye that broke every limb.
Green leaves outside began to fall,
Marking the end, love’s final call.
Shattered pieces, no chance to stall.
