To The Girl Who Broke My Heart.

(My Love Diaries)

In the shadows where we used laugh,  

I roam through echoes, caught in a spell.  

Your smile, once the light that lit up my way,  

Now drifts like a shadow, fading away.

The moments we shared, like whisperers in the dark,  

Have wilted to silence, lost like a bird in the park.  

Your touch was a warmth I believed would endure,  

But now it’s a chill that I cannot ignore.

I still hear your laughter in the  stillness of night,  

A hauntingly sweet tune, now a sorrowful predicament.  

Each word we exchanged, now a bittersweet ache,  

A reminder of love that we couldn't forget.

You painted my world in divine hues,  

But those colors have dimmed,

I reach for the stars, but they slip through my hands,  

As dreams turn to dust.

So here’s to the girl who shattered my trust,  

A lesson of love, that hurts.  

We would ignite a flame that would burn so bright,  

Now it flickers alone swallowed in darkness.
