A former love is a strange mixture of bright nostalgia and sharp pain. Memories, like shards of a mirror, reflect the past, reminding us of happy moments and inevitable partings. These poems are an attempt to make sense of what's gone, to accept the loss, and to find the strength to move on. They are about those who once meant everything, but now remain only an echo in the heart. They are about acceptance, forgiveness, and the hope of new love.

Autumn trace
The sheet has turned yellow, like an old letter, Echoes of tender words in it. The autumn wind, like you, has come, Dispelling the image of past nights. An empty bench in the park, silence, And only memory whispers names. Love has gone, like melted spring, Leaving a bitter wave in the heart.
Understatement
Silence roams empty apartments, And dust in the photographs, as if on the soul. Something unsaid, like a sharp string, Reminds us of the past. We parted silently, in the half-dark, Without explaining our feelings, without speaking. And every day, like a stone on the ground, Reminds us that you are not here. Now only an echo resounds in memory, And the ghost of a meeting lives in vague dreams. Love is gone, and the heart sleeps quietly, But the pain of loss still oppresses.
Forgotten Waltz
A waltz is playing in an old café, The melody is so familiar it brings tears. Once here, in our arms, at this hour, We believed in love, knowing no dreams. Now I alone listen to the tune, And see only your ghostly portrait. Love has gone, like a morning tune, Leaving a bitter mark on my heart.
Cold rain
Cold rain taps on my window, As if crying with me. It reflects everything that happened long ago, The pain of separation and the heat of the soul. We promised eternal love, But time has destroyed everything around us. And in this gray, rainy gloom, I again remember your tender gaze, my friend. Now only drops run down the glass, Washing away the memory of happy days. And in my heart it's quiet, as if there is no singing, Only the echo of pain in lost lands.
Empty bouquet
A withered bouquet on an old chest of drawers, reminds me of days gone by. You gave it to me on a distant journey, and I held it in my hands. Now the flowers have faded and cooled, like the love that has faded in my heart. Their petals, like tears, have spilled, leaving in memory only a sad tale.
Broken mirror
A broken mirror is our fate, Shards of the past cut our eyes. We were reflected in it, loving, barely noticing the thunderstorm crack. In each shard is a deceptive light, And the ghost of happiness that can never be returned. We have lost everything, and there is no longer Hope to breathe the past again. Attempts to glue it back together are only a foolish deception, Devastation in the heart, pain and emptiness. Love is gone, leaving only a scar, And eternal, unbearable melancholy.
A quiet whisper
In the stillness of the night, I hear a soft whisper, your voice gentle as a summer breeze. It awakens memories, and in my soul, a longing for the days when you were near arises.
Old letter
I carefully guard this old letter, filled with your writing, like a precious gift. It contains promises, hopes, peace, and echoes of the fires that vanished into the night. Words of love, naive and simple, remind me of happy days. But time heals wounds, my dears, and the pain of loss fades in my eyes. And yet, rereading the lines, I feel my heart ache again. Love has gone, leaving only vices, and the memory that always protects me.
Empty cup
An empty cup, cold tea, remind me of your hand. We drank together, in silence, in sadness, and talked about everything, about every little melancholy.
Forgotten City
A forgotten city, narrow streets, where we wandered, holding hands. Every stone, every bump, holds memories like sounds. We swore eternal love under the moon, but time has changed everything around. And in this city, quiet and empty, I remember your tender gaze, my friend. Now only the wind blows here, whispering your name in the silence. Love is gone, and the heart freezes, in a forgotten city, in a sad spring.
Broken Bridge
The broken bridge is a symbol of our love, destroyed by time and fate. We tried to restore it, but in vain, it was all just a struggle.
The Last Dance
The last dance, slow and sad, I stood frozen in silence in your arms. We knew this evening would be our last, and the pain of separation was already within me. The music faded, and you were gone, leaving only bitter sadness in my heart. And in this hall, empty and deserted, I remember your tender veil. Now I dance alone, in the darkness, with the ghost of love that lives in my memory. Love is gone, and there is no longer any hope that it will return to me.
The departed shadow
A vanished shadow, a light touch, of your hand that will no longer warm. Only in memory will remain the recollection of how the heart joyfully flutters.
Fragments of Hope
Shards of hope, scattered everywhere, Like broken glass, cut my soul. We built castles from fragile miracles, But the winds of fate destroyed everything in battle. We believed in eternal love and happiness, But time has shown that it was just a dream. And in this world full of misfortune, I remember your tender tone. Now I collect the fragments bit by bit, Trying to glue the past back together. Love is gone, leaving only boundaries, And the pain of loss that has long been untameable.
Silence in the heart
Silence in my heart, emptiness around, After you, my love, my pain. I try to find a new sound, But in my memory there is only your tender role.
