Empty Streets
By Dan Terry
And now, here
These empty streets
You linger in the air
Of what once was
In the haze of smoke and neon lights
Memories swirl like that linger of you
A chapter found
Lost in shadow
I remember the way you smelled
Like a melody I couldn't forget
A rush in my veins haunting
A reminder of what we once shared
And now, here
These empty streets
You linger in the air
Of what once was
I close my eyes and breathe you in
Letting the memories wash me away
Like a wave, drowning me
In a sea of longing and regret
In every moment I find a piece of you
A fragment of us that will never fade
Holding onto these memories
Like a lifeline, keeping love alive
