Three months

In the stillness of my aching heart,
I find it hard to let us part.
They say he's flawed, a troubled soul,
But in my eyes, he made me whole.

Three months of love, so deeply felt,
In his embrace, my fears would melt.
But now he's gone, and I’m to blame,
Left alone, in sorrow's flame.

They say he's bad, but I can't see,
For I was better when he was with me.
His laughter brightened my darkest days,
His touch, a guide through life's complex maze.

We had our dreams, but they unraveled fast,
A fleeting joy that couldn't last.
In my mistakes, our love did fall,
Now I bear the weight of it all.

They cast him in shadows, dark and grim,
But my heart still longs for him.
I know it was my fault, I broke us down,
Now I'm lost in this lonely town.

Though he's gone, his memory stays,
A ghost that haunts my weary days.
I cry each night, drowning in regret,
For the love we had, I'll never forget.

I was better, whole and free,
When his love was wrapped around me.
Now left to wander, to mend and cope,
In the ruins of our shattered hope
