Stone Cold and Heartbroken

In the quiet of my lonely room,  
Your laughter echoes, a distant tune,  
Time zones stretch, and miles divide,  
A love once close now feels like a sigh.  

Letters linger, words on the screen,  
Each message a hope, a flicker unseen,  
Days turn to shadows, weeks follow fast,  
Memories whisper of glories past.  

I trace the outlines of your face,  
A map of longing in every space,  
Night falls heavy, the stars feel far,  
Each one a promise, a lingering scar.  

Phone calls bring comfort, hearts intertwined,  
Yet silence breeds doubt, am I still aligned?  
Time shuffles onward, its cruel design,  
As we chase the clocks, your heart—half of mine.  

Yet in the silence, a truth I find,  
Love knows no longitude, nor ties that bind.  
Though distances stretch like an unending sea,  
In dreams, my darling, you’re still right here with me.
