Mourning Song

Mourning Song

The morning breaks, but you’re not here,
The silence weighs, it’s all I hear.
Your voice is gone, your light has flown,
I face this world, but not alone.

I carry pieces of your name,
The love, the laughter, joy, the pain.
Each memory a gentle thread,
That ties me to the life we led.

Mourning—like a shadow on my soul,
An empty place that once was whole.
Through every tear, through every wrong,
I’ll keep you close with this mourning song.

I see your smile in fleeting skies,
A fragile hope that never dies.
But grief’s embrace won’t let me be,
It binds my heart eternally.

Mourning—like a shadow on my soul,
An empty place that once was whole.
Through every tear, through every wrong,
I’ll keep you close with this mourning song.

Though time may dull the sharpest ache,
The love we had will never break.
In quiet dreams, you’re near, you stay,
Though daylight takes you far away.

Mourning—an echo I can’t deny,
A gentle prayer, a last goodbye.
But through the dark, I’ll carry strong,
Your memory lives in this mourning song.
