Shattered Promises

In the shadows where whispers dwell,

You told me a story, woven so well.

But the truth, it unraveled, threads came apart,

In the echoes of silence, you broke my heart.

You painted a picture, the colors so bright,

But behind the canvas, you hid from the light.

You said it was family, the weight that you bore,

While you danced in the flames, I just begged you for more.

Promises made in the dark of the night,

Fading away like the stars out of sight.

You held my heart like a fragile glass shard,

But it shattered so easily, leaving it scarred.

You told me you loved me, but it felt like a game,

You wore your disguise, I was left feeling shame.

All your sweet words, empty vows in the air,

In the end, it was me, left alone in despair.

I traced every scar that your absence left bare,

Each lie like a dagger, a wound that won't heal.

You said your heart was tethered, bound by the chains,

Yet I’m standing alone, drowning in my pain.

Promises made in the dark of the night,

Fading away like the stars out of sight.

You held my heart like a fragile glass shard,

But it shattered so easily, leaving it scarred.

You told me you loved me, but it felt like a game,

You wore your disguise, I was left feeling shame.

All your sweet words, empty vows in the air,

In the end, it was me, left alone in despaif silence, you broke my heart.

You painted a picture, the colors so bright,

But behind the canvas, you hid from the light.

You said it was family, the weight that you bore,

While you danced in the flames, I just begged you for more.

Promises made in the dark of the night,

Fading away like the stars out of sight.

You held my heart like a fragile glass shard,

But it shattered so easily, leaving it scarred.

You told me you loved me, but it felt like a game,

You wore your disguise, I was left feeling shame.

All your sweet words, empty vows in the air,

In the end, it was me, left alone in despair.

I traced every scar that your absence left bare,

Each lie like a dagger, a wound that won't heal.

You said your heart was tethered, bound by the chains,

Yet I’m standing alone, drowning in my pain.

Promises made in the dark of the night,

Fading away like the stars out of sight.

You held my heart like a fragile glass shard,

But it shattered so easily, leaving it scarred.

You told me you loved me, but it felt like a game,

You wore your disguise, I was left feeling shame.

All your sweet words, empty vows in the air,

In the end, it was me, left alone in despair.

Maybe one day you’ll see the truth,

Or maybe you’re lost in a version of youth.

The lies that you wove, they tangled so tight,

But I’ll find my own way back into the light.

So here’s to the lessons, the heartache I’ve known,

I’ll stitch up my seams, reclaim what you’ve thrown.

And as for your love, it’s a ghost, it’ll fade,

I’ll rise from the ashes, unbroken, remade.
