In the beginning, whispers sweet as honey,
Promises of forever, skies always sunny.
But underneath the surface, shadows grew,
A garden of thorns, where love once flew.

Each word a dagger, each touch a vice,
A toxic brew, paid a heavy price.
Smiles that hid the pain, eyes that lied,
In this cruel game, where hearts have died.

Nights filled with silence, days with dread,
A love turned bitter, where dreams are bled.
Chains of affection, binding tight,
In the dark of night, we lost our light.

Farewell to the poison, to the lies we told,
Breaking free from the grip, so cold.
Healing wounds, mending the soul,
Toxic love, no longer holds control.
