In the shadows, love wore a mask of night,
Whispers of torment, hidden from sight.
Promises broken, dreams turned to dust,
In an embrace that shattered trust.

Eyes once bright now dimmed by fear,
Silence the scream we dare not hear.
A heart that beats in a cage of dread,
Bound by words, by tears unshed.

Bruises fade but scars remain,
Invisible chains of endless pain.
In a world where love should heal,
This twisted love made wounds too real.

Yet in the darkness, hope can rise,
A whisper of truth, a light in the eyes.
Break the silence, let love be pure,
For hearts to heal and souls to endure.
