Crushed

In a game of love, shadows loom, A crush that turns my heart to gloom. I walk a path of silent pain, Where love's sweet whispers turn to rain. In dreams, your smile lights the way, But reality brings a disarray. A crush, a weight upon my chest, Love's bitter game, a harsh jest. Your smile, a ray in the dark, Yet it conceals a painful spark. In this dance, I'm just a pawn, Crushed by love that lingers on. Each beat, a melody of sorrow, Love's song with a bitter tomorrow. In your presence, a storm takes flight, Leaving shattered dreams in the night. Oh, unreturned, love's bitter taste, A silent scream, a soul laid to waste. In shadows deep, my heart does cry, A wounded love that won't say goodbye. So here I stand, love's chance denied, A heart shattered, feelings set aside. A crush, a storm that won't depart, Love's painful symphony, crushing my heart.
