Heart in Ruins

In the shadows, I stand alone,

Echoes of love that we both disown.

You took my heart, the price was steep,

Now it haunts me, I can't sleep.

You had my heart in the palm of your hands,

With every touch, we made our plans.

But in a flash, you took your leave,

Left me shattered, hard to believe.

Now every whisper feels so loud,

Every thought consumed in the crowd.

Can't shake off this panic line,

Thoughts of you just intertwine.

You ripped it out, no looking back,

A fleeting love on a broken track.

It kills me during these panic attacks,

Searching for peace in what we lack.

Memories haunt in the dead of night,

Your laughter echoes, it doesn't feel right.

Chasing shadows of what we lost,

Counting the heartache, I pay the cost.

Now every whisper feels so loud,

Every thought consumed in the crowd.

Can't shake off this panic line,

Thoughts of you just intertwine.

You ripped it out, no looking back,

A fleeting love on a broken track.

It kills me during these panic attacks,

Searching for peace in what we lack.

Take a breath, I’ll face the day,

But you linger still, won’t fade away.

Fight the shadow that ties me down,

As I walk this lonely ground.

You had my heart in the palm of your hands,

Now it’s just dust and scattered strands.

But I’ll rise, find a new dawn’s light,

Step by step, I’ll win this fight.
