Mystery Untold

To her warmth of love, I don’t know when I got sold,
   She had heart-wrenching story, trusted what she told,
      I didn't realize her lies, she was brave and bold,
With her deceptive smile, truth couldn't thrive to unfold.

She tore away her promise, broke my heart of gold,
   Such a serene beauty, turned merciless and cold,
      In loneliness, shattered pieces of heart I hold, 
I never knew her secrets, why fake tears she rolled.

In my mind's corner, memories echo though old,
   Her presence lingers on, while past I tried to fold,
      My thoughts keep wandering, I beseech them I scold,
Secrets of her life, remain mystery untold.

This is really an excellent monorhyme Meenakshi! It contains a depth of emotions that does not seem forced. It speaks to all who have loved someone and then been deceived by them. Outstanding work! Congratulations on your top win! 7 ; )
