Chapter 132: Where the shadows end

I scream into the silence,

But it echoes back alone.

A world without you standing here,

Feels colder than I’ve ever known.

You carried something dark and deep,

A weight that words could never show.

And though I wish you could have stayed,

I hope you’re free where shadows go.

Was it the fight, the endless fight,

That blurred the line between wrong and right?

Or maybe you just couldn’t see

A way to hold the hurt, like me.

But now your pain has found its end,

You're broken heart, a way to mend.

I hope the storm inside you’s gone,

That somewhere bright, you can finally move on.

I’ll carry this, the weight of you,

The things I never got to do,

The words unsaid, the love we knew

But I can’t end the pain like you.

Though I’m shattered, torn apart,

I hope you’ve healed your broken heart.

You’ve found your peace, your final home,

And now, at last, you’re not alone.

Your suffering’s gone, it’s mine to keep,

Now that you're gone. Eternal sleep.

I hurt too deep, I can't release,

I hope your soul has found its peace.

I’ll carry this, the love and pain,

But you, I pray, won’t hurt again.

And though your song has left the sky,

I feel your presence close nearby.

Your suffering’s gone, but you’re not far,

A whisper now in every star.
