“In the Ember’s Glow” (Free Verse Structure)
Verse 1The embers flicker in the night,A fading glow of what we were.You used to be the light that kept me warm,But now,It’s just the cold that’s left.The fire between us once burned so high—Now all I see is smokeAnd shadows.
Verse 2I wonder if you feel it too,The way we slowly fall apart,The way the whispers of doubtReplace the warmth of love.Your voice, it cracks like wood in flames,But there’s nothing left to catch the spark.
ChorusIn the ember’s glow, we fade away,The fire that was, now gone astray.We whisper through the ash and dust,But love was never meant to trust.
Verse 3The night is long, and you’re too far to hold.I wish I knew where we went wrong.Maybe we were never meant to last,Just a flash of heat,Now gone.
ChorusIn the ember’s glow, we fade away,The fire that was, now gone astray.We whisper through the ash and dust,But love was never meant to trust.
