There was a time
When every word we spoke felt eternal
Our promises were like fragile glass
Shining under the light of hope
But even glass cracks
And so did we
Now I stand in the echoes
Of what we once called forever
Hearing nothing
But the silence of broken ties
Every time we said forever
It was a gentle lie
A way to hold on
When we both knew
It was time to say goodbye
The cracks were there
We just covered them in borrowed words
Like a silent storm beneath innocent skies
And now our silence is the only truth left
A cold wind blowing through my chest
Two strangers in the same old room
Watching the last light of our love fade away
These are the broken ties
The quiet truth behind the soft lies
A tangled web of what we used to be
Now just a fragile, fading memory
The hardest goodbye isn’t said
It’s the empty space
Where love has been
Every corner of this house
Tells a bitter tale
Of a love that sailed too far
Only to fail
I look at your side of the bed
A barren land
A story written
By a stranger’s hand
No fight, no bitter words
We just watched
Our fragile world collapse
Not in fire, not in rage
But in threads pulled too far
In dreams that couldn’t stay
The hardest goodbyes are never said
They are just lived
In silence
