Shattered

I thought love was safe, a place to rest my soul, but all I found was empty words, hollow promises that tore me apart. My heart shattered into pieces, breaking with every tear that fell from my tired eyes. Alone in the dark, I reach, but nothing holds me now. The weight of loss pulls me further down, sinking deeper into pain. Every beat feels like a heavy thud, echoing the ache within me. My heart, once whole, is now left broken, in pieces and pain, torn in two. Oh!
