In the quiet chambers of my heart,
where shadows of past mistakes reside,
lies the tale of love that never should have been,
a story of hearts intertwined yet misaligned
Forgiveness is a gentle whisper at night,
calling out to the wounds left open wide
its voice is a balm for scars unseen,
healing the remnants of a love misled
We danced in the twilight of our fears,
holding on to fragments of shattered dreams
mistakes, like ghosts, haunted our embrace,
yet in our eyes, a flicker of hope remained
Healing began with a single tear, a drop of sorrow,
mingled with grace, we let go of the chains
that bound our souls and embraced the
freedom of letting go of this freedom, like a
bird released from its cage,
allowed us to soar above our pain
In the garden of our memories, we planted seeds of forgiveness,
understanding, and peace; each blooms a testament
to our journey from brokenness to
wholeness, from pain to release
Though our love was never meant to be,
its lessons were etched upon our hearts,
and we found profound solace in the truth
we uncovered that healing comes from
within and love from afar like a guiding light,
this truth has led us out of the darkness of our past
So, here’s to the past we cannot change,
to the love that taught us to forgive,
for in the shadows of what once was,
we discovered the light of what can be, which was a goodbye–
