The Heartbreak Ballad

We met like a sunrise, soft and slow, Eyes caught in a fire only we could know. Your laugh was a song I played on repeat, Every word you said felt like a heartbeat. I gave you my days, my nights, my soul, In your arms, I found my whole. But love’s a fragile glass in the wind, And I didn’t see the cracks begin. You whispered forever beneath the stars, But forever can vanish behind cold scars. I held your hand, believed in the glow, But sometimes love’s just a shadow show. I’m still here, where you left me, In a room full of memories, empty and heavy. You were my fire, I was your rain, Now I’m soaked in the silence, drowning in pain. I reached for you, but you slipped away, Leaving my heart in a dark decay. I’m still standing, but barely alive, Trying to hold on to what didn’t survive. Days turned to weeks, then months in between, I searched for the you that I once had seen. Photos and letters, the ghosts of a smile, But your absence grew wider with every mile. I walked empty streets, trying to forget, But every corner I turned whispered regret. You moved on fast like it was just a game, While I held your name like a b*****g flame. The nights got colder, the silence grew loud, I lost in the noise of an empty crowd. Your promises broken like shattered glass, I tried to hold on, but I couldn’t last. I’m still here, where you left me, In a room full of memories, empty and heavy. You were my fire, I was your rain, Now I’m soaked in the silence, drowning in pain. I reached for you, but you slipped away, Leaving my heart in a dark decay. I’m still standing, but barely alive, Trying to hold on to what didn’t survive. I replay the moments, a movie in my mind, The smiles, the fights, all perfectly timed. What did I miss? When did it end? Was I just a chapter, not a friend? You were my future, my whispered dreams, But nothing’s quite as simple as it seems. I loved you deeply, with all my scars, I thought you were the one, But you disappeared like falling stars
