“a long lost love interest, she left me after 4 years and didn't really say why, hasn;'t talke to me since, but in my heart, i miss her”

Four years we built a quiet world  
Of coffee spoons and Sunday sun—  
The tender tide where time unfurled  
Two lives believing we were one.  

Yet seasons turn, and so you turned—  
A shadow fell, a silence grew,  
No lightning flash, no bridge was burned,  
Just you—departed, wordless, true.  

I seek the signs I must have missed:  
A faltered laugh, a lingered gaze,  
A thousand times I reminisce  
About those gentle, golden days.  

No letters came to mark the why,  
No closure bowed its heavy head,  
And in the night I softly try  
To speak to you in dreams, instead.  

Still in my heart you thread and spin—  
Old laughter echoing the halls;  
There's room enough to let you in  
Each time the quiet evening falls.  

You live within the spaces left—  
The missing note in every chord;  
Though time reclaims the gifts it gives,  
You’re written deep, my long-lost word.
