The Heart Heals

I once thought true love was so enchanting like magic.

But it ended so tragically.

All the whispers of love and kisses late in the night.

They faded away and dulled an what once shined so bright became lost in the shadows of the night.

I held on to those memories so tight.

Fighting to keep the past alive.

But those too faded, drifting from my mind and died.

All the tears I cried cleansed my soul.

But my pride still bruised and leaving an empty feeling of being used.

But after a time the pain became easier to bear.

The moments shared that were callously tossed away.

Those stay with me as a lesson learned.

He returned with apologies that didn't reach his eyes.

More lies to spill from his lips that once tempted me so.

Knowing full well he wasn't capable of love I sent him away.

He tried to pull me back in with a fair well kiss.

But my love no longer existed.

I whisper softly very near to his ear "play with fire, you will be burned."

The love I once had felt shall never return.

The look in his eyes sparkled with hate as he walked away.

I had always been a mere trophy to adorn his arm.

He tarnished my soul with pain and harm.

This day truly opened my eyes and healed my troubled heart.

Now as I reflect all that was been said and done.

I welcome this peace of mind.

He now is just a memory of time wasted.

What once filled me with so much sorrow, has been replaced with a smile.
