Echoes of Yesterday

It’s not the goodbyes that tear me apart,  
But the echoes that follow, haunting my heart.  
Memories, like ghosts, replay in my mind,  
Moments of joy that I’ve left behind.

They surface unbidden, in the still of the night,  
Flickers of love, now lost from my sight.  
Each smile, each word, a wound that won’t heal,  
A silent reminder of all I still feel.

The laughter we shared, the warmth in your eyes,  
Now twisted in pain, tangled in lies.  
I try to move forward, but shadows remain,  
Turning my steps into echoes of pain.

It’s not the farewell that lingers in me,  
But the flashbacks that chain me, refusing to flee.  
A past I can’t change, yet it won’t let me be—  
These echoes of yesterday, still haunting me.
