Tangled Heartstrings

Tangled Heartstrings You, a shadow in my light, An ache that haunts the depths of night. Every word, a serrated k***e, You dance between my hate and life. Love's tender whispers d***n in spite, Fires turn to ashes, lost in flight. You pulled me close, then let me fall, A cruel puppet’s show, I hear your call. I hate the way you steal my breath, A ghost that lingers, haunting death. Yet in the silence, a flicker remains, A tethered spark amidst the chains. Each f***t, a w*r I can’t forget, Battles waged with no regret, Your laughter echoes like a song, A bitter sweetness, where we belong. Through the storm, I chose to stay, But love’s a game where hearts betray. Drawn to you like the moon to the tide, In this twisted dance, our worlds collide. I hate the way you know my soul, A fractured heart that can't be whole. Yet when the dawn breaks, and shadows flee, I find a trace of you in me. So I’ll scream into the void of night, A prayer for peace, for wrongs made right. With every pulse, this truth I see, That hating you is loving me.
