Whispering Shadows

Times Read: 32
Shadow of mine—
the centuries do not pass;
they float,
like petals on a moonlit river,
softly spinning toward the horizon of forever.
You once moved through these sacred halls
as though the roses leaned in to greet you,
as though the thorns themselves softened
just to brush your skin.
A crown rested on your brow,
but it was your smile
that ruled me.
We shaped a kingdom out of breath and longing,
a place where even the stars paused to listen.
But war rose like a nightmare from the deep,
and steel began its cold, merciless dance.
Swords sang, shields cried out,
and the earth drank our sorrow for endless years.
Still, our love glowed—
a secret ember hidden beneath the ruin.
Yet within that fire,
a shadow grew.
Hatred slipped in like a whisper,
and betrayal shattered our gates
with the quiet cruelty of a falling star.
Piece by piece,
we were unmade.
And still…
across the drifting ages,
I feel you.
Your heartbeat echoes through the chambers of time,
a rhythm I could never forget.
Your scent lingers in the wind
like the memory of spring.
Your voice—
a soft, impossible whisper—
threads itself through the silence
between worlds.
Love lies buried beneath moons of ash,
but when I reach for you,
it stirs like something waking from a dream.
Tell me, beloved—
where do we wander now,
in this kingdom of quiet bones and silver dust,
where even the ruins
remember how we loved?
