Echoes of Deception

In the silent night's embrace, I'm trapped within the gloom
Once aflame with love's bright light, now trapped in love's dark tomb
Her deceitful web she wove, with each lie, she left her mark
Leaving me shattered, broken, torn, as she tore away my heart

Illusions of affection, like daggers, cut so deep
In a sea of doubt and disbelief, I find myself to steep
My all I gave, my heart I laid, at her feet, I did behave
But she took all and left me, a mere puppet, to her slave

Her honeyed words, so sweet, they whispered in my ear
Yet behind her charming facade, hid a heart devoid of cheer
Played me like a symphony, her love just a masquerade
Now I'm lost amidst the ruins of a love that quickly decayed
