A FRAGILE DISGUISE
A Fragile Disguise

In shadows cast, you're not by my side,
Yet dwell within, in my heart you abide.
Through fleeting dreams, you dance and gleam,
A bittersweet echo, a distant theme.

No meeting place for our souls to find,
Yet sweet memories, an eternal bind.
Unforeseen, this separation's decree,
Tears flow freely, yet I pretend to be free.

A walk envisioned, hand in hand,
Now a wish untold, like shifting sand.
Beside you, I yearn to stroll,
But you vanished, leaving an empty soul.

In this unexpected realm of despair,
Where stopping tears seems beyond compare,
A masquerade of smiles I wear,
Hiding the ache, the unspoken prayer.

Walking alone, your absence profound,
Echoes of your laughter, a haunting sound.
Wished not for a grip, just a parallel stride,
Yet you vanished, leaving a void inside.

Hope lingers, a flicker in the night,
That you'll reappear, make everything right.
'A fragile disguise', an emotional plea,
For a day when you'll return to me.
