The Weight of Silence
The Weight of Silence
In the quiet corners of my mind,
Your voice still echoes, soft, but blind.
Once, you were a star in my sky,
Now, just a memory that passes by.
On January’s cold and bitter day,
You spoke words that stole my breath away.
"Finished," you said, "No more to share,"
Leaving me with only silent air.
But a year went by, and fate was kind,
Your call returned, though fleeting, blind.
I helped you, heart open wide,
Only for you to turn and hide.
Why does my soul ache with such pain?
When will this longing end its reign?
I gave my heart, I gave my trust,
Yet all you left was dust and rust.
I long for you, though I don't know why,
For in your silence, my dreams do lie.
A love once bright, now dimmed with doubt,
A heart full of questions, none to shout.
In the silence, I search for you,
But find only echoes, nothing true.
And in my heart, where you once stood,
I feel the weight of misunderstood.
Oh, Pakeeza, if you could see,
How deep this love still dwells in me.
But now, I wait, in silence deep,
For a love lost, I can’t keep.
