It just spoke to me when I saw it….
“Our love once rose like a cathedral,
every word a stained-glass prayer,
but now the colors have bled into gray,
and the silence inside feels holier than us..
I built Great walls for you.
Stretching for miles and miles,
thinking it could keep us safe.
But distance is heavier than stone,
and the space between us grew taller
than my hands could climb.
I used to trace your face like marble,
believing even weather could not wear us down.
But now your features blur,
a statue no longer mine to recognize.
Love was supposed to be a wonder.
Something eternal, envied,
untouchable,
but even wonders fall into ruin.
And tonight, I kneel in the rubble,
the only one still mourning what we built.”
