Love is pain

You are leaving. A slow retreat
from us, from shared moments,
as if stepping into a shadowed dawn
where pain clings to every step.

With heavy steps I walk away
from the echoes of yesterday,
from dreams that once bloomed bright,
from the weight of your fading light.

I see the weight you bear inside,
a heavy heart that struggles to mend,
I let you go, though it breaks me too,
for I know I cannot be your end,
understanding your need for space,
I set you free, my love transcends.

The road turns cold and gray,
as dusk deepens into endless night.
Rain taps a mournful tune,
each drop a reminder of lost light.
Step by step, I shed the ties,
fleeing the shadows where our memory lies.

Now I send a gentle, glowing light,
hope and love to guide your way,
through the darkness of your heavy path,
toward the dawn of a kinder day,
may this beacon warm your weary soul,
and lead you to the break of day.

In the distance, a spark gleams clear,
a tender light calling me near.
It whispers hope, a path reborn,
guiding my heart to a new dawn
I walk toward that radiant sight,
leaving the darkness of the night.
