Shadows In The Night

In the garden of love, where roses once bloomed

A serpent slithered in, with a heart of stone

You whispered sweet nothings, but poisoned my mind

Leaving me withered, like autumn's leaves left behind

You're the darkness that consumed me whole

A midnight storm that stole my soul

I'm left to weather the shadows in the night

Alone, with only tears to light

Our love was a flame, that once burned so bright

But you fanned the embers, of deceit and spite

You left me to suffocate, in a sea of lies

Drowning in the depths, of your cold, calculating eyes

You're the darkness that consumed me whole

A midnight storm that stole my soul

I'm left to weather the shadows in the night

Alone, with only tears to light

Memories of you, they haunt me still

A bittersweet reminder, of love's cruel will

I'm left to pick up the pieces, of a heart that's broken

A puzzle that can't be fixed, a love that's unspoken

You're the darkness that consumed me whole

A midnight storm that stole my soul

I'm left to weather the shadows in the night

Alone, with only tears to light
