A love gone by

In the echoes of a decade gone by,

I find myself under the vast, star-strewn sky.

"It's been over a decade," the whispering wind conveys,

A tale of love lost in life's intricate maze.

In the not-so-long chapters I've penned,

Fantasies of you, my constant friend.

A promise etched in the soil's embrace,

Where love bloomed, with a timeless grace.

Do you recall our naive vows,

Amidst the red hue that adorned our brows?

Back when love was a mysterious lore,

Unveiling its secrets, bit by bit, at love's door.

We ventured into a sacred dance,

Unaware of the ties that bind, enhance.

Marriage, a canvas, yet to be painted,

Love's definition, still untranslated.

Now I stand in the shadows of time,

A seeker in a quest, an emotional climb.

"I don't know where you are," my heart cries,

Yet fear holds me, veiling my searching eyes.

Too scared to unravel the mystery,

Of a love lost in the pages of history.

To find you, a daunting endeavor,

Will your heart be mine forever?

What if you're with someone, not me,

A thought that haunts, a painful decree.

Too scared to know if I'm a distant thought,

Or in your memories, love is still sought.

The promise we made, does it linger in your mind?

Or has it faded, like footprints left behind?

Too scared to discover the truth,

In the ruins of love, the fragments of youth.

Yet, in the silence, courage takes its chance,

To seek the answers, to break fear's trance.

For even in the fear that clouds my view,

I'll search for love, and maybe find you.
