Hallow light
bond once strong, now grows old
Deceit seeps in like winter's night
Leaving scars, and a hollow light
A month is all it took,
And yet I've fallen in the deep ends.
Never did I suspect that the rain
Would shower me with ice,
And thee with sand.
Losing hope is near the shrine.
In eyes that once held warmth and light,
A frost has settled, dark and tight.
The echoes of our laughter fade,
As trust, like autumn leaves, is laid
To wither, lost, and unreclaimed.
Read the rest of the poem Show less
None to trust but a comrade,
None to accept advice from but a dear friend.
Shiver is foe, but deceit,
A friend of mine in mind laid.
Perfection I did not expect,
Compromising was on the finale and grand.
Yet, in shadows, truth awaits,
A silent witness to heartbreak's weight.
Amidst the shards of shattered dreams,
A glimmer of self-love beams,
A beacon to guide me through the night.
