Echoes of You

In quiet moments, shadows cast, 

A laughter echoes from the past. 

Cousin, friend, with spirit bright, 

Now lost to us, like stars at night. 

Memories linger, bittersweet, 

In every smile, in every heartbeat. 

The games we played, the dreams we shared, 

In every corner, your spirit’s bared. 

Time moves on, yet still I stand, 

With heavy heart and empty hand. 

Your voice, a melody in the breeze, 

A whispered comfort, a gentle tease. 

Though distance stretches, love remains, 

A bond that time can’t break or change. 

In every tear and every sigh, 

You live within me, never goodbye. 

So here I hold your memory dear, 

In every moment, you are near. 

Though we must part, this truth holds fast: 

Love knows no end; it ever lasts.
