GONE TOO SOON

Lost in the shadows, where the echoes loom, Memories linger like a ghost in the room, Heart heavy, feel the weight of the gloom, Life’s a fleeting moment, like a flower in bloom. Time ticks slow when you’re chasing the past, Thoughts race fast, but the moments don’t last, Caught in a flash, like a spark from a blast, You were here, now you’re gone, fading fast. Dreams shattered, but I build from the wreck, Every step I take, I’m paying my respect, Life’s a tightrope, every move is a check, You were gone too soon, but your spirit’s direct. In the rearview, I see the trails that you paved, Lessons you taught, in the heart, they are saved, Every word you whispered, in my soul they engraved, You were gone too soon, but your legacy’s brave.
