The shadows lengthen, stretching across the room
Another day is fading, swallowed by the gloom
The clock ticks on, a metronome of slow decay
Withering grace, fading fast, slipping away
The world outside, a blur of passing lights
A symphony of sirens, lost in the lonely nights
Memories flicker, ghosts of joys long gone
A bittersweet refrain, a mournful, fading song
Such a shame, to watch it all unfold
Beauty withering, a story left untold
The fragile heart, a vessel cracked and torn
Drifting aimlessly, lost and forlorn
The rain falls softly, washing dust away
But the stains remain, with each passing day
A yearning for the past, a yearning for the light
To escape this fading echo, in the fading night
Such a shame, to watch it all unfold.
Beauty withering, a story left untold
The fragile heart, a vessel cracked and torn
Drifting aimlessly, lost and forlorn
A whisper on the wind, a sigh upon the breeze
Carrying the echoes of forgotten memories
A yearning for the warmth, a yearning for the grace
Before the shadows fell, and time began to race
