In the shadows of your charm I fell,
Entranced by words that cast a spell.
Blind to the cost, I gave my all,
Unseen were the signs of my downfall.

You wove a tapestry of deceit,
With every smile, my trust you’d cheat.
Promises made, but never kept,
In the silence, my spirit wept.

I was a pawn in your grand scheme,
An actor in your selfish dream.
For your gain, I paid the price,
Unaware of your heart of ice.

Now I rise from the ashes of pain,
No longer bound by your disdain.
A lesson learned, a wound to mend,
Freedom found, my heart to tend.
