You were the sunrise in my morning sky,
The warmth I wrapped myself in tight,
The voice that soothed my every sigh,
The promise every night.
But somewhere in the shadows,
Between your words and mine,
You let another’s laughter
Touch your lips, and not my line.
You swore your heart was honest,
But secrets grew like weeds,
You gave away the pieces
That were meant for all my needs.
Now I sit here, hollow,
With echoes of your lie,
Wondering how the one I loved most
Could look me in the eye—
And swear you’d never leave me,
That I was all you knew,
But in the end, you chose to go
And left me torn in two.
So here I am, still healing,
With memories and scars,
Learning to trust the world again
Beneath these broken stars
