In the echoes of our shared past,
Betrayal whispers, a shadow cast.
You cheated, a truth I'd long sensed,
Yet the cruelty in your words, immense.

The language wielded, a dagger keen,
A departure from the person once seen.
Since long, you'd left, a ghostly trace,
Leaving my heart in a desolate space.

On that day, love turned to dust,
In your words, a painful thrust.
Respect shattered, an unspoken vow,
Leaving me broken, then and now.

A plea lingers in the tear-stained air,
A sorry unsaid, a heavy despair.
Why did you choose to wound so deep?
Leaving scars that time can't sweep.

In the ruins of what we used to be,
A sad romantic heartbreak symphony.
A requiem for a love gone astray,
Yet the ache remains, an unwelcome stay.
