Devastated by your lies
I’m left reeling from their sting.
And so, numbed by betrayal
I can’t feel another thing.
You swore you’d never hurt me
but you're just like all the rest.
And it feels like you reached in
and tore my heart from my chest.
I made a wish on a star
so that I might yet awake.
And escape this nightmare dream
for it's more than I can take.
Sadness saturates my soul
quietly smothering me.
And entombed within a tear
all thoughts of love cease to be.
(Quatrain)
