Spectral Arc of Color

Verse

Under the marble hush of your name, I stand alone

My breath curls like incense, whispering into stone

"Are you happy where you’ve gone, far from our years?"

Each night I tread our haunted paths, tracing you through tears

Pre-chorus

The sky weeps quietly, silver rain on my skin

Each drop a memory, each drop where you’ve been

Chorus

I despise you for vanishing, yet I ache for your embrace

A prisoner of your shadow, a ghost in your space

Then a trembling of light breaks the grey in the air

A spectral arc of color, as if you’re suddenly there

Warmth unfolds around me, dissolving my grief

"Live well," I murmur, "I’ll also find peace"

Verse

My heart is a candle flickering in a cathedral storm

I curse the vacancy where once your arms were warm

But heaven peels open, pouring a silent vow

Your colors cascade, and I surrender now

Bridge

Was it your hand in the radiance, or my sorrow gone astray?

Was it mercy or memory bending light this way?

The frost on my anger melts into rain

In your phantom rainbow, I unlearn my pain

Chorus

I despise you for leaving, yet I ache for your embrace

A prisoner of your shadow, a ghost in your space

Then the trembling of light breaks the grey in the air

A spectral arc of color, as if you’re suddenly there

Warmth unfolds around me, dissolving my grief

"Live well," I murmur, "I’ll also find peace"

Outro

So farewell, my love, beneath this opaline sky

The storm bows out quietly, no more reasons why

Your colors crown my shoulders, your warmth rides the breeze

"Live well," I murmur, "I’ll also find peace"
