Clap
Save

In a house of whispered sighs and echoes deep,

A love once bright now struggles just to keep.

The balance sways as one adjusts her stride,

While dreams once shared begin to slip and hide.

She bends and bows to keep the peace at home,

Her heart, a river, but the banks have grown.

To walls too high for waters clear to flow,

She wonders where the days of laughter go.

She stitches wounds with silence, bites her tongue,

In hope that love will strengthen, stay young.

But threads are fraying, truth too hard to hide,

Her soul yearns for a place where it can glide.

In mirrors, she sees fragments of her past,

A time when love and joy were meant to last.

But now the weight of compromise grows great,

She questions if this path is one of fate.

To find herself, she must reclaim her voice,

To balance love, there must be mutual choice.

She dreams of days when hearts beat in sync,

When love was a dance, not a fragile link.

A time when laughter echoed through the halls,

And love’s light painted colors on the walls.

Yet now the shadows lengthen, doubts arise,

She questions if love's spark can truly survive.

She yearns to speak her truth, to share her pain,

To break the silence, break free from the chain.

For love to thrive, it must be given care,

Adjusting not alone, but as a pair.

She hopes for a day when balance is restored,

When both give freely, neither feeling ignored.

In the quiet moments, she dreams anew,

Of love reborn, a bond both strong and true.

Where both can grow and neither must concede,

A love that nurtures each, fulfills their need.

For love to flourish, it must be shared,

A journey taken when both are prepared.

In her heart, a flame begins to glow,

A spark of hope, a will to grow.

She knows that love can find its way,

If both are willing to work, to stay.

So she speaks her truth, her voice now clear,

In hope that love will rise and persevere.

For in a house of whispered sighs and echoes deep,

A love reborn can rise from sleep.

With mutual care, respect, and trust,

Love’s light can shine through time and dust.

And hearts that once were out of tune,

Can find their harmony, their love in bloom.
