Forgotten In the Dark

Alone in the night, with no one to hold,
A life she never chose, yet she's so bold.
Her mother left her, on the day of her birth,
A cruel fate, that dealt her an insurmountable hurt.

She never knew the warmth of a mother's embrace,
Feeling lost and disconnected, in this lonely space.
She searched for love and care, but found none,
Left to face the world, with no one to lean upon.

Amidst the struggles, there was a man,
Who held her hand and helped her stand.
But fate had other plans, and he met his end,
In a moment of despair, that she couldn't comprehend.

His death left her shattered, with a heart so sore,
Feeling lost and broken, with a pain to the core.
She retreated within, with her grief so deep,
Hoping for peace, in this endless, sad sleep.

Her mother's abandonment, a wound so deep,
A lifetime of scars, too painful to keep.
A love that was lost, before it ever began,
A fate so cruel, no one can understand.

Days turned into months, and months turned into years,
As she faced life's blows, with her soul in tears.
Till one day, she closed her eyes, with a final sigh,
Leaving the world behind, with a last goodbye.

And so, she joins the stars, in the infinite sky,
With her dreams and hopes, that never did die.
A life so hard, that ended in sorrow,
A story of survival, in a world of no tomorrow.

Illicit Passion

She was a woman of beauty and grace
With a heart that longed for a lover's embrace
Her marriage was dull and devoid of desire
But a new flame ignited a passion that was dire

He was a man of power and charm
With eyes that sparkled with a dangerous alarm
Their affair was a secret, a forbidden delight
A love that burned with a passion so bright

She found in him what her husband lacked
A passion that filled her with a love so intact
Their stolen moments were like a dream
A love that was pure, or so it seemed

But the truth would soon come to light
A betrayal that shattered her with all its might
Her husband discovered her infidelity
A discovery that would end in tragedy

Her lover was gone, her heart torn apart
A love that was pure was now a painful remark
Her marriage was over, her life in despair
A love that was lost, beyond any repair

She learned too late that love can be a curse
A passion that consumes and leaves nothing but hurt
Her heart was broken, her soul in pain
A love that was lost, forever in vain.
