In shadows where whispers softly weave,
A tale of love that dares deceive,
Hearts entangled in a web of lies,
Beneath the mask, truth silently cries.

Promises painted in hues so bright,
Yet fade away with the absence of light,
Words spoken with a silvered tongue,
In the silence, their falseness sung.

Dreams built on foundations of sand,
Crumble swiftly at the slightest hand,
Eyes once dazzled by the glow,
Now see the facade, the hollow show.

Yet from ashes, the heart will rise,
Casting away the veil of lies,
Seeking truth in a world so vast,
Leaving behind what’s never meant to last.
