In the quiet of the night, shadows whisper lies,
Cloaked in the veil of truth, they dance in disguise.
Hearts are led astray by soft, deceitful tunes,
Beneath the silver light of cold, indifferent moons.
Promises like fragile glass, shatter in the dawn,
Trust is torn asunder, innocence withdrawn.
Words that once brought comfort, now a bitter sting,
Echoes of betrayal in every song they sing.
Eyes that once shone bright are clouded by the mist,
Of words untrue and secrets sealed with a kiss.
Love becomes a battlefield, truth a distant dream,
In the labyrinth of lies, reality’s unseen.
Yet in the heart’s deep chamber, a spark still survives,
A flicker of hope in the darkest of lives.
For even in the shadows, truth can find its way,
Shining through the lies to herald a new day.
