The Unspoken Goodbye Poem Verses

A sudden parting, a love unbound,
In quiet moments, my heart resounds,
For the one we've lost, too soon, too fast,
A love now missed, a goodbye unasked.

I miss their smile, their gentle touch,
The memories shared, that mean so much,
Yet in my heart, their love remains,
An unspoken goodbye, through joy and pain.

In whispered prayers, I'll find my peace,
A love unbroken, a bond that's ceaseless,
My dear one, forever near,
An unspoken goodbye, undying, clear.
