Whispering to Yesterday

I found an old letter inside a wooden drawer. Words that I don't read anymore. Your handwriting still feels like a ghost. A reminder of the love I lost. The room is quiet, the night is cold. I'm holding memories I can't hold. The clock keeps moving, but my heart stays Somewhere lost in yesterday. I know the past can't hear me call. I know those moments are gone for all. But sometimes when the stars shine bright, I talk to the shadows in the night. I'm whispering to yesterday. Telling it I'm finally okay. Thanking it for the love we knew. Even for the pain it brought me through. I can't change the tears that fell. Or the stories time will never tell. But I'm learning how to walk away While whispering to yesterday. The old piano plays a familiar sound. Like your footsteps coming back around. The blues still know the way I feel. But every wound has learned to heal. I carried your name like a heavy stone. Afraid of facing life alone. Now I see what I couldn't see. Losing you Was finding me. So here's my goodbye to the days behind. To the broken heart I left in time. I'll keep the memories, but I won't stay. I'm no longer living yesterday. I'm whispering to yesterday. With a smile instead of pain. The tears have dried, the storm has passed. I'm free from the weight of the past. The love was real, the hurt was true. But my future belongs to me, not you. I'm turning the page, I'm finding my way. No more whispering to yesterday. The night is fading. The morning is near. Yesterday is a memory, Not a place to live.
