|| Echoes of a Divine Goodbye ||

In silence, your absence screams,

A haunting echo in my quiet dreams.

My heart, once whole, is now torn apart,

Shattered shards of a foolish heart.

I beg the heavens, end this ache,

For love so fleeting still can break.

It gave me joy, it gave me peace,

And now I kneel, begging release.

My songs are sad, my sky turned grey,

My soul forgets the light of day.

And in the hollow of the night,

I crave your arms, your sacred light.

In selfish pride, I let you go,

But what I’ve lost, I’ll never know.

I thought I’d rise, I thought I’d shine,

But all I brought was pain — not mine.

When given joy, I chose the storm,

A heart unhealed, a love unborn.

Is sorrow now my only skin?

Or have I lost the life within?

I’ve faced my past, I’ve fought the fire,

But this love’s ghost won’t yet retire.

My eyes still weep for what once was,

A tender bond, a divine cause.

And though it wasn’t meant to stay,

Why does my heart still break each day?

The mind says, "Move," the heart replies,

"But in his gaze, I saw the skies."

For through his love, I met my Lord,

In him, my Krishna's soul was stored.

Now light has left, the colors bled,

And grief's dark ocean pulls me dead.

They say be friends, pretend you're whole,

But I have kissed his very soul.

To step back now, to smile, to fake —

Is more than this poor heart can take.

Yet still I sit with grief as guide,

No tears to hide, no hope to bide.

For in this war, the final cost

Was not just love — my spirit’s lost.

So let me mourn, let me be still,

Let sorrow break me if it will.

For in that love, though torn apart,

I lost not him — I lost my heart.
