A heart that's lost, a wasted youth.

About Someone

Broken Bonds

In the shadows of your gaze,
Lies a betrayal that does amaze.
Each word you spoke, each lie you told,
Turned my heart to a place cold.
Your betrayal, a haunting light,
Turned my brightness into night.
With every deceit, every sigh,
You made my trust in you die.
Your treachery, a cold wave,
In your presence, I am brave.
In your absence, I found my voice,
Learning to make my own choice.
Forever growing, forever true,
In your shadow, life renews.
