In silent whispers, the shadows creep,
A smile hides the pain so deep.
Words like daggers, pierce the soul,
Leaving wounds that time cannot console.

The heart, a fragile glass, now shattered,
Trust once whole, now bruised and battered.
Echoes of cruelty, a haunting refrain,
Tears fall silently, mingling with the rain.

Nights are long, with dreams of peace,
Yet the torment within will never cease.
False promises and empty lies,
The light fades from once bright eyes.

Hope is a flicker in the dark,
A yearning to heal, to leave a mark.
Strength will rise from the pain,
A broken heart will love again.
