Shadows of Loyalty

Held on tighter than a python's squeeze,

Dreamt of forever, now she's beggin' release.

Heart was a castle, he played the thief,

Stole her crown, left her drowning in grief.

Thought he was the road, he was just a dead-end,

A lesson wrapped in lies, not the love she'd defend.

Believed in his words, they cut her like a blade,

But pain’s the forge where stronger souls get made.

Not her forever, just her awakening,

Storm in her chest, now the rain is thin.

What not to accept, she’s learned the spin,

Rising from the ashes, let the new begin.

Fell too deep, like a canyon's floor,

He wasn’t a home, just a trapdoor.

Now she sees clearer, no rose in the lens,

Love ain't supposed to break, it’s supposed to mend.

Cried rivers 'til her spirit could float,

Now she’s the captain, he’s just the ghost.

Every tear a pearl, strung into her pride,

She’s steering her ship, he’s lost in the tide.

Not her forever, just her awakening,

Storm in her chest, now the rain is thin.

What not to accept, she’s learned the spin,

Rising from the ashes, let the new begin.
