Echoes of Our Love

This poem speaks of the lasting impact and echoes of love in the partners’ lives, resonating beyond moments and days.

In the silence, your love echoes loud,

In every corner, every cloud.

A whisper of us, in the air,

In every moment, you are there.

 

Our laughter echoes, in the halls of time,

A melody sweet, a perfect rhyme.

In each echo, a memory’s weave,

In your love, I believe.

 

These echoes, a testament so true,

Of the love shared between me and you.

In every echo, in every dove,

Resounds the beat of our love.
